apparently Jim O'Rourke, Uwe Schmidt and Robert Lippok were commissioned to write the demo pieces heard in the various PR spots.

As fun and interesting as they are, it's basically useless as a decent sequencer cause all the notes are in the key of C, so no black keys folks.

i'd be very surprised if it wasn't programmable
i'd sooner get a monome tbh

for $300 this would be a fun toy to leave lying around the living room, but the actual street price is kind of hilarious
for what Yamaha blew on advertisements & that promotional tour, there'd better be at least some interest in the thing

Of course it's programmable, but you only have the 7 notes of the C major scale to play with, no sharps or flats, which is a bummer.
