Le Strum MIDI Controller
It doesn’t matter how you shape or form a MIDI controller, there is going to be a person out there who wants it and a person out there who despises everything about it. We tend to want our controllers to be fully functional right out of the box. This means, no soldiering and no cutting into plastic boxed to make it all work – just plug it in and map it to whatever we want. The size of the controller also dictates what it will be useful for. If it is as large as a ten inch mixer, well then it will likely be the mainstay of your production controllers. If it is smaller, then perhaps it is merely an add-on to your regular gear. Now, if is tiny – then you have some real room to work with.

This means that they can implement the system into something larger, like a guitar – or even put it where it isn’t usually supposed to be. I can say that I appreciate the reduction in cost with these smaller modules. http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2013/06/17/le-strum-midi-controller-like-the-love-child-of-an-omnichord-stylophone/
