the future keyboards? – Controller-Ideen: Weg mit Tasten

Tach auch.. also mal ne kleine Idee: Wieso müssen eigentlich immer Tasten normal sein? Wieso kann eine Keyboardtaste nicht ein 2D-Controller-Feld sein? Sprich: Drücke ich eine Taste, dann wird der Ton gespielt, aber ich sende pro Taste 2 weitere Parameter, die ich durch die Fingerposition einstellen kann..

I don’t know if it knows where the parameters are (no jumps) but I’d expect it to to so.. the rest may be still „another controller“ ?? we’ll see.. hmm, well..
