Very interesting, I didn't know there would be that many experiments around the ergonomics of musical keyboards! My own personal experiment: an hand-held keyboard-like device[0].
I am fascinated by the Harmonic table note layout. It really makes you wonder about the mathematical basis of what we find aurally pleasing.

- nkrisc 8y agoVery cool project and nice documentation. I have to assume you'd already be aware of this, but if not (or for others who come across this), it reminds me of Martin Molin's "MODULIN": https://hackaday.com/2017/02/13/its-a-synthesizer-its-a-violin-its-a-modulin/ https://hackaday.com/2017/02/13/its-a-synthesizer-its-a-viol... It's more like a violin in ways, but can also be played sort of like a keyboard.
- BeniBoy 8y agoThanks! Very interesting instrument, I love the expressiveness of the ribbon pitch controller! I was thinking about adding an inertial unit to create a pitch "vibrato" effect, which can really liven up a digital instrument.
