It's possible, but it seems like it is a glorified control surface and audio
interface for sonar. The only mention of displays refer to a seven segment
led for now time and a 2 line 13 character display for markers and whatnot,
but it runs off good old sonar. If I had $4000, I'd wait until cT for sonar
8 came out and take a chance as this seems like it would work well, but then
again, I don't, so I'm waiting anyway. <grin>

Phil replied: I wouldn't count on it.  Neither Tim Burgess or others
interested in accessibility have taken a look at it yet and so are not in a
position to comment.  My advice, don't spend any money until some of us have
had a chance to try it out.  For all we know, this thing could have
wraparound menus, lots of multipurpose menus etc.

The below link takes you to the press release for the cakewalk/roland
v-studio 700, the control surface, audio interface and software that
cakewalk is touting s the next big solution for musicians. I read up on this
thing and I am floored. And since it works around sonar 8 producer, bundles
rapture with sonar 8's dimension pro and even includes a Roland fantom
equivalent synth onboard, would guess that this will be quite accessible.
The price tag, at $4000 hurts, but I wonder if this would convince me to
upgrade from my fw1884 since the hardware and software are integrated.
Anyway, here's the info as per the press release.
