[Keyboard controllers] was Re: Guitar synth..take it (or leave it) for what it is



A standard on/off organ-style keyboard controller, yes.  But the addition 
of
aftertouch along with all the mod wheels/pads/pedals adds an enviable 
number
of controls.  And there used to be this wonderful keyboard that would also
let you wiggle each key from side to side and map that to what ever you
wanted, giving you two aftertouch inputs on each independent held note.  I
wish manufacturers had embraced that wonderful idea.
