I think it's still missing something...
As Ben_Binary noted:
where are the 4x4 MPC Pads ?
Also. why both touchstrips are horizontal?
I'd like at least one vertical!
Oh, and wouldn't you like led feedback near these strips?
Same goes for some of the potentiometers...
why don't put some of them in a channel_strip/analog_mixer config...
i.e. instead of having banks of 8 (4*2 or 2*4) on the right side,
let's put four, six or eight above every channel...
that way, when you have them configured per track
they are already ergonomically mapped to the track...
when you use them in a more general or device specific configuration
it's still more easy, ergonomically speaking, to detach them mentally
from their track related positioning.
Also, why so many controls above the crossfader, are they really needed?
especially when you have a lot of per track buttons... and eventually potentiometers
Why don't insert another row, like the scene launch one, but above or under,
like launchpad's one that have the user mode selection buttons in it?
I understand why the area around the pads needs to have some space instead of buttons...
but still it's seem the only area left for some global buttons (like the ones related to
transport functions: MIDI_Overdub, PunchIn, PunchOut, Global Play, Global Stop, etc...)
I do like the bottom left section, especially the two tiny buttons under the pots, but also
this ones can be arranged on the side of a x_track group of controls
I do like the compact 32 step sequencer section.
I'm sure that if costs $200 it will cost €200...
without considering where it is actually produced, how it is distributed...
@julienb
even managing to build something like that with an hardware framework...
will it ever be similar to the one rendered by juanSOLO?
It's difficult to make something like this without some kind of industrial
production at least of the front panel. Don't get me wrong, the monomes, the livid's
and your protodeck are all beautifully crafted, but they don't cost 200 (euro or dollar you choose...)
I want to just
wave my hands in the air...
wave'em like I just don't care...
but with the software doing what I'm thinking it should do...
