That's certainly desirable, I am trying to imagine whether this is difficult to develop or not. Apparently so far most or all apps are midi-based, so this seems to be the cheapest way (but with too many restrictions)... Could the apps be programmed to act as part of the instrument's OS and communicate via USB without midi? Or would it be sufficient to implement enough midi SySex messages to make it behave like an internal screen?
