via Superdan Rosenstark on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge:
"I've been thinking a lot recently about virtual space vs. "real" (physical) space and control. I finally got a 3D artist to do a rendering. This one is for our layout for the Casio XW keyboards... one for our massive layouts for the Roland U.S. JD-990 would probably be more appropriate for this lounge, but anyway... this is just a fun concept image. Hope you dig it and don't mind the plug."
via MIDI Designer: "Virtual space does have its advantages. Here's what the iPad controller for the Casio Music Gear XW line of keyboards looks like if you spread it out.

Like a PPG Realizer on steroids. This is why I was a fan of the iPad from day one. It opens up synths in a way that would be virtually impossible with hardware. Not to mention you can jump spaces on a virtual controller. You can't on hardware sliders and knobs. But it's not one vs. the other. Nothing beets physical knobs and sliders for that tactile experience, but if you can't have them the iPad is the next best thing and it does have some advantages. Check out my FS1R editor - 80 pages and access to over 1000 parameters. Not feasible in hardware.
