Yes, this is a weird one. The Jankó keyboard with its “6-6” layout was designed by Paul von Jankó in 1882. Because it has an isomorphic layout, each chord, scale, and interval has a consistent shape and can be played with the same fingering, regardless of its pitch or what the current key is. If you know a piece of music in one key you can transpose it simply by starting at a different pitch because the fingering is the same in every key. It's also angled so that an upwards position is just as, if not more effective when playing (Think Ian Williams from Battles).

The synth engine is the same as the KORG N5, making this board incredibly versatile and flexible for any and all types of artists. 64 note polyphony, 32‑part multitimbrality, 4‑part multi‑effects (2 processors), 12Mb internal ROM samples, portamento, aftertouch, built in arpeggiator and a lot more to dig in to! It also features MIDI in, out and thru so you can control any MIDI compatible synths.
