Build your own keyboard layout from scratch

Michael writes about the The Ergodex DX-1 - a $149 custom-configurable keyboard system, with up to 50 keys, positioned however you want them on a base station. "They talk about it as, and it is marketed as, a gaming controller," says Michael. "I don't know about YOU, but I don't see a gaming controller! Bundle this MF with Live."


Comments:
Not as great as it sounds if you want to use it for a custom piano-like keyboard (i.e., building your own Van Janko keyboard). When you dig around in the fine print, you find that it balks at fewer than six simultaneous keypresses. For a mono-synth lead though...
 
You mean a bit like this: http://www.mawzer.com/ ? Lots of faders, buttons etc, which you can move about on a back board.
