"But all I need to solve that is a great control application on the tablet that transmits MIDI over WiFi to the main studio computer. No special hardware required."<div><br></div><div>+1 to that. the software abilities are what holds me back, not missing a piece of hardware. The only advantage being wireless "really" gives me is the ability to patch easier. Yeah it's nice, but is a supplement to the abilities of the software. I would guess that the software would be able to handle all sorts of midi i/o streams (any device that shows up as a midi driver), no? (that'd kill the "usb" comment since all synths still use midi, it's just encapsulated in the usb protocol).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Yet, I think the wireless hardware and the particular technology of the wireless hardware is significantly secondary to the abilities of the software. I'm not missing the hardware to get it done, I'm missing the software to make it work like I'd want it to. If it's easy to have a user administered wireless patch bay, then go for it, but it's not a "sticking point" for me. I don't think you'll find too many that will absolutely have to have it for that functionality. </div>
