This video, via controller1337, offers a first look at a custom DIY controller for MOTU BPM.
The controller, based on the MIDIBox platform, is basically designed to create a hardware version of MOTU BPM. The layout of the BPM controller closely follows the design of the BPM app.
It’s an impressive DIY job that begs the question – what music software do you want to see as hardware?
I think Rebirth would be awesome as hardware.

I like the idea of a tactile virtual modular, too. It would be great to patch it up and have all that knobbiness, but then be able to play polyphonically!

I'd like to see Arturia's CS80V2 as hardware.

LinPlug's Albino, Tone2's Gladiator, and another vote for NI's Massive.
Those are my favourite synths that aren't already hardware (like Korg's Mono/Poly and NI's FM8, or those that wouldn't work as hardware, like Omnisphere).

Melodyne Editor… if the on-screen blobs were in orange plasticine instead you could squidge the formants and mould the pitches with your fingers.

I'm looking forward to a multi-touch version of Melodyne. Wouldn't it be fun to just use your hands to "massage" vocals into shape?

I remember that the MOTU BPM and the NI Maschine were announced roughly at the same time, and that I was fooled by a 3D image of the former and thought both were actually hardware

except full DAWs wouldn't really work in hardware, you would have to dedicate half a wall to them.

I know it is far from the realm of possible. Unless we follow the rules given to us by the film 'Inception'. That I could go for.

I want to see a software version of Steve Jobs so the Woz could remove the data forks and watch it struggle.
