It still hurts, but I can manage to play the synth and my rock/pop material comes out just like it always did.
The synth keyboard leaves me flat, unexpressive and just about as exciting to me as those old MIDI tune files from the 1990s.
The theremin is so much more expressive and real. So much more human and feeling than mere switches.
I have been spoiled - I played too much of the instrument. At least I ordered the Osmose - I think Haken should be driven by the theremin somehow at sometime in the future.
