[sdiy] Buy (bare) keyboard?

[BR]

This is interesting.. so how do you play your
synthesizers?  as just sequenced midi-controlled sound
modules?  I have a bit of a hard time getting used to
this idea.  I'm learning to play the keyboard now,
with all the music theory involved, because I'm used
to thinking of playing the instrument in terms of
playing a piano.  New types of control are needed, and
Im always interested to hear of developments in the
field, but as yet I know of no better way to
physically interface with the machine...

Well, I certainly can't speak for others, but, I find
the most
irritating thing about many of my synths is that they
have keyboards
attached. :)

Seriously though, I can't imagine what the value of
building a CV
keyboard is? Perhaps someone can enlighten me. I think
a midi keyboard
plus midi2cv converter is the most common method of
connecting a
keyboard to a diy synth.

Many modern monosynths don't even use a CV keyboard.
Rather, they use
a micro and a scanned board along with a DAC to
generate the CV for
the synth.
