    Very interesting! I come from a guitar background, so for playing scales, I use the traditional "3-notes-per-string" approach (that would be "3-notes-per-row" here). Nonetheless, your approach is interesting becomes it allows you to cover more range than mine. For example, if you're doing a scale run from the lowest row to the highest row, both me and you would traverse the full 8 rows. However, I will remain in one position throughout the run since I'm using 3 notes on each row, but in your case you are position shifting every 2 rows. So when you land on the highest row, your hand is in position to play a few more notes higher up than me. I will definitely try to incorporate your approach for certain scenarios.

    Great video, always great to see a musician using gear rather than gearheads who are very informative but without as much musical background.
    Have just received my Linn and running my own Hannon style exercises, hopefully I can get to your dexterity with some work!

    Interesting technique. I’ve been using a 3 row pattern, so I get tripped up when I traverse more than one octave. This is a good idea. Thanks for sharing!

    Easily the most impressive playing I’ve seen on the Linnstrument! I just ordered mine - learning scales seems like it’s going to be exhausting but rewarding. How long did it take you to achieve this dexterity, especially considering that you’re playing with pitch quantisation off?

      The thing is, if you learn one scale, you have covered like 95% of your needs. So in that sense it is one of the easiest instruments to learn. It is really hard to say how long it took to get there - some periods of very little playing - some with a lot. But you can always start with quantize on. But at some point, I felt like a singer always singing through autotune - it kills some expression. And as yiu get used to no pitch quantize, you really get to appreciate and expand your awareness of tuning. E.g. if I play an E as a major third (in C), it is flatter than standard equal tuning, but if I play the same E as the minor third (in Db minor) it will be slightly sharp.

    this is great, I';ve just picked one up and would love to know how to set it up in this way on the settings - any info appreciated :) thanks

      This is the default note layout. What do you need help with?

      Ah It seems that the I bought it second hand the default layout had been altered - just reset it and now all good, thanks ! @@Trk-El-Son

    Excellent tip... Do you have similar argonomic tip for playing various chord shapes? I find it difficult to play major, minor etc across three different rows...Hence looking for better idea.

      Thanks!
      Sorry, I play very few chords. My main focus is absolutely melodic/solistic.
      There are quite many who use linnstrument as a controller for piano sounds, so I am sure there is some knowledge out there. But in the end it comes down to what you like and how it feels in your hands.

    great video, but more importantly: can you tell us about the panel you have made (hiding the text elements)?

    • @Trk-El-Son
      @Trk-El-Son  2 года назад +1

      Thanks! And yes: They are just the original panels, but turned upside down. 😊 There is a little craft involved though, because the screws are countersunk, so you need to use a countersink tool to carefully work the holes so the screws can go flush with the surface of the panel. With the right tool this is very easy. And should you ever regret, you can just flip the panel again, and it will look 100% “normal”. Note: the screws should be tightened according to Roger’s advice. Too tight or too loose can make the Linnstrument misbehave. (Also: Wow, it took a long time before meeting somebody with similar instrument aesthetics. 😄)

    Great suggestions. Also loved the tone, presumably coming from the modular?

    very interesting, is this the default tuning? I've set mine to fifths and I doubt I could unlearn my usual patterns)

    • @Trk-El-Son
      @Trk-El-Son  3 года назад +1

      Yes, the default tuning in fourths.

    Which model is this? It looks smaller. Did you rehouse it?

    • @Trk-El-Son
      @Trk-El-Son  Год назад

      It is the 128. I have just flipped the top panel upside down, to get rid of all the cluttered writing.
