Abstract

We introduce the Look Ma No Keyboard user interface, an ergonomic and intuitive method for controlling music sequencing software from a piano controller by adding a momentary foot switch. After describing the current practices and the design of our system, we discuss the results of user testing, comparing the conventional input device with ours.
