New comment by vintagevibe in "Termixer (TUI DJ Mixer)"

I'm a DJ/TUI nerd and as much as I want to like this, I don't think the keyboard will ever be the right input or mode for DJing. Maybe my mental model is an outlier, but multi-point physical controls are critical for so much of what's happening while DJing — the master level controls, effects, cueing, individual track controls, and even just being able to physically manipulate playing tracks. It just doesn't map to a TUI, or perhaps more importantly, it just doesn't seem fun. How does the TUI transition this? What makes a TUI the right interface?

Odd framing for the opposite of “holding customers hostage” - I don’t think people want or need to be loved by their enterprise software.
