very funny

My idea is: let`s give him do his matrix of buttons, but I have one suggestion: better for instrument is

not drill holes - but makes prototype in another box. This will give a many possibilities experiences.

i agree, you can make as many mistakes as you need to on a separate box.  once you make mistakes on your organ console, it will never be the same again (even if you can professionally cover them up).

"definately 36.. yeah.. yeah.. 36..  definately 36 buttons."

Now the previous suggestion of an external box.. starts to make a lot of sense here, as does the matrix patch concept. Make a 8x18 or whatever. Not to mention, that is doable with one MB rather than several chained MB's. It is a managable project, that could be a COMPLETEABLE challenge for a young guy just getting started in electronics. And it would be immensely usefull for music work to boot.

Sure it isnt what you WANT, but you will learn to live with it, and even love it. Especially when you realize that by making it more managable, you saved yourself more than half the tedious work.
