Musical-instrument controller with triad-forming note-trigger convergence points

摘要

A musical instrument controller provides an array keyboard in which most note triggers form major 3rd, minor 3rd, and perfect fifth intervals at line segment boundaries with adjacent note triggers, and form major and minor triads at vertices or other convergence points where three note triggers meet. The segments and vertices provide for single-finger triggering of intervals and triads. After-pressure and movement in the array plane (even crossing trigger boundaries) provide for three dimensions of per-key continuous control.
