This is just and idea of what makers can add to arrangers in the future.... Has anyone ever played a keyboard that had a ribbon controller for the pitchbend? I played a Kurzweil digital paino the other day that had this and WOW! what awsome control over the sound! It was so much easier playing guitar and sax sounds using a ribbon controller. Pulling off a whammy bar effect was so easy... It was so convincing that the sales clerk came over because he thought I hooked up an actual guitar.. He came over to ask me to show him how I played a particular riff and nearly crapped himself when he saw I was playing a fully weighted 88 key digital. If anyone can find a good digital that uses a ribbon controller for pitchbend, I suggest you give it a try.
