[sdiy] Looking for ribbon controllers

[xamboldt]

Or sandwich the FSR strip with the position-sensitive strip and have  
a pressure-sensitive ribbon controller, giving you two parameters to  
control with one touch. Use the position for pitch and the FSR for  
velocity, or run the FSR through a comparator for a gate, etc...
