I'm creating new musical instrument - Multi Parallel Synchronized Sound Synthesizer/ 3D point controller and DAW.
Currently looking for a manufacturer and where to order a custom, velocity sensitive, multi-touch screen display/fingerboard(and other parts) required for prototype.
Info:
www.soundonsound.com
Multi touch screen display /fingerboard, will be used both for playing and options, like controlling oscillators and other. Will work in standalone mode as synthesizer, using minimal of function, and together with software (DAW) as 3D point controller or Midi messages. This DAW have another type of audio synthesis, and have a graphical interface, and will use 3Dpoint messages instead of Midi, which is not flexible enough.
This synthesizer will be designed to play independently with 2 hands(like on piano), playing many melodies in same time(till 4, like music band of 3-4 person), with a different sounds from stored soundset. Complete arrangement with different sounds, that will turn playing to real-time, music live performance. This instrument will require advanced playing style, without strings, playing on multi touch screen fingerboard.
There is more detaled pictures on:
with examples about, how sound from soundset can be assigned on fingerboard.
This instrument will use a part of codes, of graphical interface and audio synthesis of DAW, so that both DAW and synthesizer will work in same way. This will also let you create your own musical instrument inside synthesizer(fretless, semitones, graphical or just something)
Concepts of this synthesizer and DAW, was test with another instrument (some kind of midi guitar), which I had before.
