its cool and all, but it still suffers from the basic problem that all
these touch-surface instruments have: insufficiently high sampling
rate.

for more info on how to do this right:

follow the links from there. there are no patents here, and the result
is a *VASTLY* more sensitive instrument than anything done with the
technology under contention by apple, amazon et al.

of musicians is here: http://www.madronalabs.com/
