- I was hoping that more effort and resources could be spent find 'better' ways to interact with the patches,
better how??? ultimately, the issue is the physical concept of the keyboard...
and that you expect to be able to use ten fingers to play it...
take the guitar..... and indeed, ANY strung instrument of that type... Violin, thru to double bass and all stops between.....
each note has a mass of parameter possibilities.... which are completely impossible to replicate on the keyboard as it stands... especially if the player wants to be able to use more than one hand....
...
the main statement being "as it stands" - but what I believe is possibly overlooked is that research efforts are steered in a particular direction. As an example, what stops one from futhering the development of a breath controller to allow more complex control over horn patches.
What about the 'strumming'a ction of a guitar - the requirement is 6 strings and a sensor circuit possibly 10cm in length - the mind boggles with possibility and I'm sure the clever boffins at various R&D departments would surprise us if company policy allowed it.
