![Multi-Touch Musical "LinnStrument" Demoed on YouTube [VIDEO]](https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/archives/0649liirAFR6u0dQ047XESe/hero-image.fill.size_1248x702.v1647018644.jpg)
The instrument — which Linn calls the "LinnStrument" — can take input from all of your fingers, so you can form chords in addition to sounding individual notes. Each space is pressure sensitive to allow for maximum range of expression. Sliding your finger vertically adjusts the timbre while horizontal motions change the pitch.
The final product would take the best elements from the layouts of the piano (chromatic increments) and the guitar ("parallel rows of semitones offset by fourths"). It will look a little different from the prototype, and it'll be wearable vertically over your torso. You could also just leave it on the table like this prototype, though. We've included the render of what Linn imagines below.
The LinnStrument looks like an improvement over those fun-but-limited iPhone instrument apps, and you can be sure that you'll be able to play "Poker Face" on the LinnStrument too... if you really want to.
