Roger Linn Design LinnStrument MIDI Performance Controller

Description

Roger Linn Design decided that modern keyboardists and synthesizer fanatics deserve a new way to interact with their instruments, and the LinnStrument USB/MIDI controller was born. Each of the eight rows covers a two octave range, and you can "tune" each of the rows in relation to the others just like you would with strings on a guitar. And you can modulate each note in three ways simultaneously just based on your touch. We've gotten our hands on countless MIDI controller keyboards here at Sweetwater, and we can safely say the Roger Linn Design LinnStrument is a genuinely unique way to play.

Unlimited musical potential with string-like tuning
Color LEDs give you instant visual note feedback
An amazingly expressive way to play your synthesizers and software instruments
When you get your hands on the Roger Linn Design LinnStrument you'll notice that each note responds to your touch, polyphonically, in three ways: loudness via pressure, pitch via left/right finger movement, and timbre via forward/backward finger movement. Of course, you can assign each of these to whatever MIDI parameters you prefer.
Unlimited musical potential with string-like tuning
Look at the eight rows of notes on the LinnStrument as strings on a guitar. Each row gives you access to two octaves, and you adjust the range for each row. You can tune them just like a guitar if you want, or tune them in fifths like a violin or cello. You may even discover new intervals and chord shapes that may inspire you to create music that you couldn't normally play with a traditional piano keyboard.
Color LEDs give you instant visual note feedback
Under the playing surface of the LinnStrument are colored LEDs that will always show you the location of "natural" notes (C, D, E, F, G, A, B), no matter how you have tuned the different rows. You can also choose to highlight specific notes in one of six colors, making it easy to see scales or every "C" for example. This smart color coding scheme makes this unique instrument easy to become familiar with, and takes the guesswork out of switching between whatever custom tunings you've come up with.
