OT - Poll : Does some of you use a programmable keyboard ?

First I want to share with you what I’ve just learn on another forum. Take a look :

And read the first yellow part of this article, at the end, cold ‘Burger, Fries etc...’ :

My dream to improve productivity.

Or this one (for those who money doesn’t care..) :

Does some of you use that kind of tool ?

I'd just like someone to point me to a 21" or better widescreen touchscreen for my computer - THAT would make me productive.

Hi, Mike.

You can get much more than 21’...

(Just kidding. I dont' know the price of those... things.)

The problem with touch-screen, is that all commands have to show on the screen instead of being buried in menus or sub-menus.

That’s why a programmable keyboard is faster with actual softs, cause no-one of them are build for touch-screen. Most commands stay buried into menus...

But I agree that a touch screen is a good approach for editing audio, piano roll, controller curves etc... Personally I use a graphical palette for the same approach.
