Dear Friends,
On the following image in studio of Hans Zimmer I can see display placed on keyboard with colour rectangles. What is purpose of this rectangles? If it's something related to shortcuts/functionality of Cubase? Why and how it's used? Please clarify. Thank you!

It's a custom touch screen controller, there's some info about it along with the system in general here:

"The Best" piece of gear is subjective.

Touch Portal or Stream Deck will do much the same job as that touch-screen. I use both with Cubase, but I prefer Stream Deck. I have buttons set up for all kinds of tasks, including switching screen views/filters, opening favourite folders, copying mixes to favourite destinations, invoking Macros, adding tracks, deleting unwanted control data... about anything you can imagine.
