<div dir="ltr"><div>I think it depends which of the 2 keyboard versions you have. At least one of them was a Pratt Read keybed. If yours is, you could consider rebushing it, cleaning the key contacts, and seeing how happy you are with it. If not, maybe keep an eye out on the auction sites and try to purchase a replacement for your current one.</div><div><br></div><div>I don't think there's much of anything going on in the alpha syntauri keyboard itself (basically a lot of switches and a cable to the computer), so it doesn't really make much sense to try to send MIDI to the keyboard. It would probably make more sense to throw out the keyboard and create a new custom interface card to put MIDI straight into the computer. That's a different kettle of fish. Someone on here that's better at computers than me would have more insight into how to do it. Seems like a lot of effort for a debatable amount of reward.<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Oct 12, 2021 at 4:05 AM francesco mulassano via Synth-diy <<a href="mailto:synth-diy@synth-diy.org">synth-diy@synth-diy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Mike, he told me that the syntauri keyboard is not the best<br>i think he would control the synthauri with external midi key or equipment </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Il giorno mar 12 ott 2021 alle ore 01:12 Mike Bryant <<a href="mailto:mbryant@futurehorizons.com" target="_blank">mbryant@futurehorizons.com</a>> ha scritto:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
