Looks kinda cool
Would anyone remotely serious about music production seriously consider doing work on a Surface? Don't think so...
Why do you say this? Sure there's no way near the range of apps available as on the iPad, but even so unless there's some fundamental technical reason (a la Android's) then why not use a Surface?Originally Posted by Nobull
Microsoft must think that they're in with a shout - otherwise they wouldn't have bothered with this peripheral - unless you're going to suggest that this is solely for home-based/hobbyist use?
Career status: still enjoying my new career in DevOps, but it's keeping me busy...
.. that's exactly what someone could have written about the ipad a year or two ago.
That's the thing about niche areas, you only need one app.
In the way that Acorn had Sibelius, for a while this meant that the best music score software was exclusive to RISC OS and thus Acorn systems.
Having a pressure sensitive set of pads should be enough. Having the app's development funded by MS hopefully in a skunkswork fashion (ie someone who loves it, is making it) then it could easily blow the existing applications out of the water.
Most *killer* tablet apps are super primitive, except Office!

Well considering the Surface Pro has full win8 and the power of an ultrabook I don't see why they wouldn't. I have mates who remix music, DJ etc and I could see them using this with a compatible app during gigs. Perhaps an Ableton app, Virtual DJ or something similar. It would be less kit to carry, less space required - for DJing this could be really useful.
