RE:engineering: You're spot on, on the engineering side it's dead simple. Simple, reliable, serviceable were all part of the goal.
RE:pricing: Other devices in this category are expensive and several have built-in synth engines and audio cards. This build uses mostly off the shelf components in an effort to keep the price down.
Instagram said I 'violated community guidelines'. Not sure how, I posted a photo of the controller and two videos of it in action. I think my error was following too many people too quickly, maybe lots of external traffic from reddit hurt too?
My guess is that it isn't anything you did other than maybe "grow" too fast and it looked like some kind of spam bot. Just a guess though. I don't know much about how instagram works other than personal use, I post pictures rarely.

Thanks! Yeah I played that in C phrygian, doubled 3rd voicing, all handled by the device.
Checked the project out, while basic from an engineering perspective, does feel like it meets a niche, and how's that a crime?
I'm inclined to buy once I see others test it (I hate being a beta tester, no offense intended).
$250 for this is *stupid* cheap, given your competitors' *stupid* prices.
Feels like a lot of info is missing here, you getting banned from Instagram.
What was the nature of the post?
edit: Also, have you considered a spring-loaded x-y controller or touchpad x-y controller? I find these indispensable.
Thanks for checking it out!

Yeah that's my best guess, too.
