friend of mine just showed me this.. I thought some of you
might find it interesting.

The first video isn't very exciting but the 2nd one is a bit
more impressive.

check it out

i was gonna comment on this

but i can't be bothered typing out my opinion on this, and
then arguing with people who disagree with me

im fully expecting most people to hate it. I personally
wouldn't spend the time learning how to play melodies on
this thing when I can play them faster and with greater
precision on a real piano. Still, its fun (for me) to ponder
what this device might eventually evolve into.

at any rate, the purpose of this thread was not to persuade
others to purchase it, but simply to relay the fact that
this thing exists.

i actually liked the first video better. seems more
interesting using it for purposes like than rather than just
playing something on piano. i especially like how you can
just raise your hand to a higher level to activate that
note, like how he goes about turning off the different parts
in the end of the first vid.

i can only imagine devo making a video with one of them
using this thing in just the robotic manor as the demo guy
does.

the fact could be only one time different and then twice
different too.
i hate the old pianos.

I agree it's more exciting to be able to interface the
device with a program like ableton than to just play piano
songs on it, however its ability to control devices like
ableton seems very limited, to the point that I wouldn't
even bother with it. Perhaps in time we'll see a more robust
array of features/abilities on it

theremin, which im sure someone has already come up with.

yea who cares what that guy is doing with it, you could do
all sorts of awesome stuff using that as a controller.

the elimination of actual keys opens up microtonal
possibilities, controlling VSTs could be more expressive
that knobs & sliders, and you would look super idm using it
on stage.

the notes trigger an arpeggio, it would be easy to play
