People are rediscovering mechanical keyboards etc.
But this seems like so much a matter of failure. I grew up in the 1970s, with Moog and Arp synthesizers the best you could get.
The potential of that plus programability on every level seemed astounding.
Obviously, the way that unfolded was into a world where fine-grained interactions within instruments were abandoned. But it doesn't have to be that way. That people aren't playing with modern interfaces just the promise has been abandoned. It doesn't have to be abandoned.
I mean, I can afford spinny Midi wheel but I can't afford a touch-sensative keyboard. I should be able to afford a touch /speed sensative keyboard.
