Graphics Tablet for Music

From where I sit (as an audio guy in the middle of a company that spends its time thinking visually) I love seeing the intersection of graphics and audio come up again and again. The latest example is this roundup of applications that use the input from a Wacom drawing tablet to control music in one form or another. I have no idea if any of these things are useful but they certainly look fun.

I played with some early release (c. 1994!) graphics tablets... Once you got used to the "range" under the pen, they actually worked really well for selecting largish areas. Resolution was always a problem, but zoom functions can help a lot. I can't afford a Wacom tablet, but I agree, it looks peachykeen.

Well, then all we need now is a way to control the channel mixer in Photoshop using motorized faders. And I'm serious.
