Hi, I'm overjoyed that the TBK is back. Yes, release it the way it
is (or even the original design) and I'll buy it. Yes, Dieter's
delaying tactics have made me compliant.
However, since posting the new concept opens up the discussion
again: my 2 cents but keep in mind it's not my intention to delay
it's release any further. So, Dieter feel free to ignore my and
others cents but go for our Euros by starting the final design. Mind
you, my hints:
I might be a view of a tiny minority but I loved to see the touch
plates not in a typically keyboard layout but the way it is from "C"
to "D#" throughout. Since there can be no more than 25 plates for
sharing the same controller with the keyboard this will save up some
space which could be used for 1 or 2 mod. wheels or a joy stick.
(This would make good for the lost pressure sensors and the keyboard
has velocity CV while the TBK have it's own advantage).
The originally announced design should have going to cost about 300
to 400 Euros. I'd love to learn how much it will be for the new
design (only a rough figure).
Regards, Ilanode
