not a fan sorry mate, in your speil you talk of minimising the setup size but you haven't actually minimised anything as you still need to have a computer to run this and if that computer is a laptop you are doubling up on keyboards, and the one you are using looks like it could get easily damaged with a little punishment. Also considering that you are only using the ipad as a pad trigger it would be much better feeling if you used real pads, Also sorry to towel you but I dont understand the ergonomics of the angled crossfader.

Personally I don't believe that the dj world will turn to touch interfaces as you cant use them blindly, your attention always has to be focused on the screen to make sure you hit the correct part, the future is rgb pads and buttons, and maybe mini lcd's behind buttons or something similar... Although maybe if you made a cover for the ipad to section off the touchscreen it would be a little more forgiving as you would introduce feeling into the touchscreen.

Oh yeah one of the samples is from "dazed and confused"...
