TouchAble's Ableton controller for iPad is unsurprisingly getting a lot of attention. Of course when the death of the fathomed Lemur controller can pretty much be blamed on you, you're bound for bigger things. The problem with hardware controllers and Ableton is that because of Ableton's modularity, there's always something missing in terms of control. Software/touchscreen combination overcomes most of the obstacles, aside from the tactile control of physical knobs and faders. I guess I should share my two cents on the matter soon, since I won my very own TouchAble app in Obedia's Twitter raffle! This is actually third cool software I've won in Twitter. In physical world my biggest raffle victory so far has been handkerchief, which happens to be missing...
