Touch screens are the worst possible input for anything productive. Maybe if there was far less latency, you could make some decent music but, in my experience, anything beyond basic, unexpressive rhythm, chords, and melodies are the best you can achieve. Nuance can be added in post, but that's tedious and sucks the life out the process.
I don't draw, but I know doing it on a touch screen is far more painful than paper.
I think alternative input devices are a must, at which point you might as well just use a laptop. That might not be practical if you're on-the-go e.g. riding the bus. If you're not, then why use a phone?
- troyvit 6y agoI have to disagree. My daughter started drawing on paper but quickly moved a tablet. What she can do is faster and more precise than a) what she can do on paper, and b) what modern desktop drawing software can do. I think she'd call her style cartoonish for sure, so maybe drawing something other than interesting characters doing weird things is beyond touch screens, but the ability to generate, combine, and manipulate elements in a drawing app on a tablet blows anything else I've seen out of the water in terms of the quality of the end result and the speed at which she can achieve it. And yeah I'm probably a little biased.
