Keyboard vs. Keyboard-less?
By Luke Myers

I have a question regarding my hybrid player piano project. Is a player 
piano enjoyed any more or less when the keys can be seen or if they are 
hidden? I know there are such things as keyboard-less players, but I 
always find them more fun when I can see the keys moving.

The reason for this question is that I will have to design a finger 
arrangement that will turn the upwards motion of the striker fingers into 
downward motion to push the keys of the Legato keyboard down. The easier 
way would be to turn the keyboard upside down. I really don't want to do 
that!

Any suggestions and comments/advice are welcome.
