Re: new Touch page on LL.org



Totally agree with you Per.
One of the main reason for our own app development. Apps like Loopy or 
EveryDay Looper (great apps by the way), are however very poor for 
live-looping if you need your hands and fingers for some other more 
important things (like playing the music or interacting with the public 
for instance ;) ). So 'most promising' is a bit awkward without better 
explanation.
Cheers,
:)
