- bjoli 8y agoI might be a bit conservative, but this seems like a regular chromatic keyboard and the music notation seems to add little readability and I can't see much advantage. I am however speaking as a very notebound musician (professional bassoon player). What are your experience with beginners?
- j_rcht 8y agoYes, you are not quite the target audience. :-). True, it's a chromatic and isomorphic layout as you can reproduce the same interval/pattern wherever on the keyboard to produce a specific chord, scale, piece. As for our experience, we conducted a quick study with beginners and the results (although small) are quite convincing, in particular with regard to note recognition and speed of play.
