yes.

How bout a matrix mixer kind of thing. sort a hardware audiomulch. any input to any and 
all outputs. or a hardware version of kontakt w/a sequencer.. ur.. uh.. oh wait i'm 
dreaming again..  seriously.. i can't recall how many times i've seen this in a forum "does 
anyone know of a hardware beat repeater/granulizer?"

there are a few things that could beincorporated into a hardwre box that would easily 
make it unique. the problem is.. it could easily be an insurmountable mess for live use 
noto mention the $ it would cost to fit a fast CPU plus RAM and plenty of i/o .

some sort of sampling/synthesis engine w/a very flexible mixer section a handfull of 
unique fx plus the elektron sequencer and a gaggle of i/o and USB or FW connectivity and 
dedicated software interface for moving samples around etc  would be an interesting 
thing.  wait a minute.. that sounds too much like a laptop...
