The hybrid option is more realistic I think, but innovations and experimentation like this shouldn't be stopped by any means.

I kinda prefer moving a mouse a few inches rather than moving my whole arm to do the same task. Now if this was angled nearly horizontal (10*?) I can see it being much better. This is the 1980's version of 2001. lol where's my hoverboard! Seems like a good idea for balding musicians with rat tails.

But definitely not the end all be all. Making music in a touch screen environment that is a "portal" in a studio is definitely less then ideal IMHO. Also, for people who are visually impaired there will need to be a textured / tactile alternative. I think companies making hardware / software hybrids are closer to what we'll see in the future. Hardware controllers backed by software is closer to a human relationship we can all participate in. It definitely is one of the multiple options out there. But definitely not the end all be all.
