There was an Old Man of the West,
Who wore a pale plum-coloured vest;
When they said, “Does it fit?”
He replied, “Not a bit!”
That uneasy Old Man of the West.
The videos below are examples of the first attempt at playing with the Haken Continuum Fingerboard in the NeoKitsch studio. One of them is accompanying the text from an Edward Lear nonsense song. David Way is playing the Viola and Danny Hahn is on the Continuum. Both Danny and David share an exciting conversation between violin, viola and unusual instruments, and they produce a large amount of music together for film, TV and for classical, Jazz and experimental music enthusiasts.
The Continuum Fingerboard or Haken Continuum is a music performance controller developed by Lippold Haken, a professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois, and sold by Haken Audio, located inChampaign, Illinois.[2]
The Continuum is a MIDI controller; it does not generate audio. Rather, it must be connected to a sound-producing source that will receive MIDI input, such as a synthesizer module.
The most recent model has begun to incorporate built in sounds, and can generate audio, but it is still primarily designed to be a controller.
