so apparently korg has made an ipad electribe emulator.
article about dat.
i really, really like the idea of being able to control software synths with a touchscreen....but the absence of everything else (ie a keyboard and a real sound card) really brings out the tech curmudgeon in me. i wish ni would come out with a box that has an mpc 9 or 12 pad, two octaves of keys, 4 big chrome knobs (to assign filter cutoff, resonance, lfo rate, lfo amount, or any other hyper-tweakable parameter you wouldn't want to use a touch screen for) and a touch screen. oh, and maybe an analog filter built in ahead of the output.
It's got a Dock connector, and you can run Dock to USB. May take a while, but game fucking over.
