But why doesn't someone who can mass produce come out with a tiny box with four knobs as above for, like, $30? people would buy them just to find something to do with them.
that's what's so great about the leobodnar units. They're throw-away cheap, almost, yet will run 32 buttons and 8 VERY HIGH RES knobs, a lot higher than regular midi.
ok, and solderless connectors can be had for a bunch more $... so, why not package it with a box with a lid with some holes in it for buttons, knobs and pov hat, and then the buttons, knobs and pov hat
(it will still end up costing more than one of those nanokorg dealies, but i guess you get the fun of snapping it together).
