VAX77 Host Control Demo [Polyphonic Aftertouch Keyboard Controller]

YouTube Uploaded by InfiniteResponse on May 20, 2011

I believe Infinite Response is the only current manufacturer of keyboards featuring polyphonic aftertouch. If anyone knows of others, feel free to comment. For those new to the term, polyphonic aftertouch allows you to apply aftertouch to only the note/s you are applying aftertouch to. On most synths if you apply aftertouch on only one note on the keyboard, all notes are affected. Many synths support poly aftertouch via MIDI. The Roland A90, Sequential Circuits Prophet T8, Yamaha CS80 and I believe Kurzweil's MIDIboard all supported poly aftertouch. Ensoniq obtained the rights to the most common form of poly aftertouch and as a result many of their synths including the SQ80 but not the ESQ1 featured it.

These were surprisingly nice keyboard controllers. Note these have polyphonic aftertouch. This is the only new keyboard I am aware of that has this.
