Hi all,

Is there a way to press more than one key on the Fake Keyboard? I can only use it via mouse and only one key at a time..

Thanks!

For quick keyboard tests, I typically use Kyma Control on the iPad. That gives you a choice of multi-touch (for polyphony), continuous vs discrete pitch, rounded on key-down, "strum" modes and choice of standard keyboard or Tonnetz layout. (Also good for quick tests of pen & tablet-like controls, a multi-touch VCS, multigrid, and accelerometer controllers).

Another possibility is the free macOS app Keyboard Keyboard which could control the Pacamara via USB-C.

Thank you!
It would be great if we could have a modifier key (shift?) that would allow us to select more than one pitch on the Fake Keyboard tool..
