String based me-mashine interface

my first instrument was based on sliders.
But, not beeing able to translate my emotions into my performances,
just moving faders up and down made me rethink everything.
I also missed the vibration on my instruments. Of course you could
immitate them by builing in rummbling motor or something, but its not the same.
