I admire Iwai's ideas, and he certainly has guts to release something this new. My only real gripe was that it wasn't really easy to change layers/blocks, and so it seemed a bit difficult to use with existing midi set-ups. It would have been cool if it could change to different blocks or patterns on the beat, for instance. While visiting my mom in London, I got a chance to use the Tenori-On yesterday.
