Speaker: ctrapp The NibbleTronic is a MIDI wind controller that features a novel user interface resulting in a unique tonal range. The standard configuration allows to precisely play a bit more than four full octaves including semitones with only one hand. In my talk I want to describe the individual stages of development from a barely usable electronic recorder to a useful and unique instrument that could come as a kit. The interface that puts four octaves at the fingertips of a single hand will be the second core topic.
