What is the future of the rotary phone? The typewriter? The floppy disc?

None of these have dissolved completely; the rotary dial, the keyboard layout, the swappable storage medium still exist, especially in music production hardware.

It just takes a company like Bitwig to come along and show how else these pre-existing interfaces can be modularised and combined, and some iterations of the Push controller[0] to uppend the traditional fingering required to play them.
