Cursor and Dial Only MPC Use.

How come this thread hasn’t been deleted, as is the norm round here?

Please add this to our list of reasons why the suggestion in this thread can be helpful... Frozen touch screens or loss of responsiveness to parts of the screen can occur.

What happens when you are out of Warranty?

The potential for accidental planned obsolescence is worrying.

+1 for this but also the inverse. There are some (crucial) features - the transport controls, for example - which can only be accessed by the hardware panel and not by the touch screen - and so when those buttons fail (as they inevitably will) your machine will be inoperable (yes you could hook up an external MIDI controller, but…)

And yes I’ve commented before on the culture in this forum for people who have no use for a feature or no experience with a particular problem to just shoot off a response. To be fair that’s just an encapsulation of the world as it mostly is - but it’s still unnecessary
