Subject: Re: Anybody ever try these for ribbon controllers? - Kurzweil PC2

Correct - three separate ribbons physically in series, electrically
independent. For some reason, the middle ribbon is 'reversed' from the
left and right. So, to put them back together as a single ribbon you
need to invert and offset the middle, offset the right, and sum them
all together. There are discontinuities around the transitions but
you can make them very small.

Or - run them as three independent ribbons.
