clearly, you touch geeks don't read createdigitalmusic carefully enough:

"Using the trackpad for a live control surface is a bad idea at least
it was for me. My last gig I ended up having to perform a track which
my live set was not setup for. A drop of sweat hit the track pad and
made it functionally useless, it was a nightmare- I ened up having to
stop the music to clean it off- This is also the reason some other
touch surfaces fail in a live setting- like Stanton’s Da Scratch. "
