Trill Flex custom flex designs.

max

I wonder what custom flex designs people did and how Trill Flex is generally used. Is there any need for more layouts, say a Trill Square-style XY-pad, discrete buttons, etc.? Show off your Trill Flex projects please!

Here is one of such projects, even though it's a Trill Craft being used here to drive the flex PCB

I thought I'd contribute what I'm working on: a kit to augment the tenor saxophone (and eventually other winds) to control acoustic feedback. I use two shortened Trill flexes to control the volume of the feedback response, mounted to the back of saxophone using sticky tack. They interface with custom hardware powered by a Daisy Seed. Couldn't post a picture - too big - but I post on instagram. I've got an explanation video in the works coming out soon too, I will post when it's done 🙂

Nice, I could only find this one that seems relevant

Where do you attach them on the sax?

On the back by my thumbs! I just put up a story showing them.

Great work, Greg! Very inspiring!

I have been working in collaboration with wearable sculpture artist Daphne Karstens on a wearable sculptural instrument called the Aether Arcer. For this I created larger flexible pcb's to follow the lines of the body. Here are some pictures:
