Sorry Markleford, only parts of that post were directed at you. The rest were part of an on-going discussion between myself and a few others. I can see how that might have been a bit confusing as I didn't seperate them very well.

So once again, sorry for the confusion.

Hey, understandable. Not a problem.

And deastman, that is very cool, though I can only imagine very expensive as well (if not moreso)! Interestingly, it says it's rear-projection: I imagine you could top-project on the Continuum as well (for the mere price of an LCD projector!) since the surface is essentially featureless. Better do it in white, though.

(would make it a bitch to take to gigs, but then again so would the light table)

Maybe but think how many good controllers you could buy for the cost of a single Continuum and you could then have dozens of people on the job.

Well I was the guy who posted the link after all. Still, mostly one fingery.

Here's another video, little more going on:

Towards 40 of my Edirol PCR-30 at ~$150, in fact! Can't argue with the financials of it.

You could buy a lot of Wacom tablets, too, though using a stylus isn't as immediately gratifying as fingers.

So that's where Jordan Rudess is from. I only ever knew him as "ubiquitous expensive synth gear demonstrator."

Wow, I like that Wacom table in those videos!

I may have to pick one of those up.

Liquid Tension Experiment were much better IMHO, you'd do well to check out their two albums instead.

OMG! watch this instrument in action
