Touch Wow
This idea is older than the current Forum version, so I'll rehash.
Touch. X2 introduced Touch features, I believe, and it got me thinking in terms of Steven Slate's implementation, but I think he's stayed on a smaller boat. For Sonar, I mentioned a long time ago that this would be a potentially "Wow" feature at the next NAMM show (which couldn't be sooner than this Winter NAMM).
As we know at CES, more large-scale TVs are being announced. It's likely these things will become touch-friendly, so who's to say you couldn't take one of these 60"+ screens set side by side in the shape of an old 96-channel Neve Console and run a blown up version of Sonar w/Touch?
Pretty much, all CW would need is to increase the graphics size for finger sizes and allow the views to extend beyond one screen. Include a couple of side-by-side 4K TVs (Seiko makes 'em cheap!), and let 'er rip! We could angle them like a desk and show the market how this is done!
Here, Waves is getting busy with it:
