An idea for ultimate controller keyboard
Full lenght 88-key MIDI-keybooard with selectable weighted/semi-weighted action. The weighting would be switched mechanically by electronic motor(s) and it could be controlled by MIDI. It might not be the lightest keyboard around, but I'm sure people would buy that thing if it would work without major flaws.
The problem with that invention would be the costs of R&D. If one wants to make this kind of system work perfectly and be reliable it needs huge heaps of capital and the risk of losses is of course big. Only company that could afford that risk is Yamaha. Hear me Yamaha, make my idea come true (with 1% royalties).
But wouldn't this kind of keyboard be cool? You could switch through patches and the weighting would change to suit the patch you selected.
