hi list,
dieter doepfer says:

"I'm very busy at the moment and so I cannot give you
very detailed info about the Trautonium-like
controller at the moment. As soon as the prototype is
working I will put a message on our web site. It is a
position sensor (used in the industry) similar to a
ribbon controller with about 50 cm in length. We are
about to develop an electronics that outputs a Gate
and CV signal as soon as you press your finger
somewhere on the sensor stripe. The Gate simply turns
on/off and the CV corresponds to the position of your
finger. Unfortunately the sensor is very expensive
(about 100.- Euro) and we have to add the electronics
and case and of course we want to earn a few Euros
too. Maybee we will add a pressure sensor under the
position sensor (the same as used in the sensor
keyboard) but I think this will not be ready for the
Frankfurt fair."

any comments,thoughts about this future product
