Are we going backwards, Large screens to small ones?
I just got a S88 Mk2 as the idea or having direct control via the screens and buttons directly on the keyboard appealed to me, plus a nice set of weight keys of course.

Binaural Beats
I want to create Binaural Beats and have most NI products. Is there a way with their instruments to generate a sine wave at a particular frequency, say 440, and another at 470?

The magical things modern computers can do.
I had fun today playing a mixture of a Rhodes blended with an FM synth Rhodes and controlling the volume of a string section with my left foot. Amazing how low the latency is, it's like gone. What a perfect time to get started, thirty years ago just having a midi sequencer was all we really had.
