[sdiy] flexible resistors?

[Rob B]

Er, of course, this *won't* work if your keyboard uses the other popular
method of aftertouch that uses phase shift relations/capacitance by having a
small metal plate inserted into a xmitter/reciever arrangement beneath the
key. ;)

Some Ensoniq stuff use this method.
