About Haken Audio’s Instruments
The Continuum Fingerboard is a touch-sensitive, polyphonic electronic instrument that offers continuous multidimensional performance control by responding to each finger independently. The ContinuuMini is a smaller, more affordable duotactic model based on the same technology. Inside either is the EaganMatrix, a cutting-edge, user-programmable, digital modular synthesizer taking full advantage of the supple playing surface’s myriad performance possibilities. For Eurorack users, the EaganMatrix Module is a modular gateway to new musical explorations."

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Auld Lang Syne on Continuum & Osmose


video upload by JOSH MADOFF

"Thanks so much to Christophe Duquesne @anckorage for this amazing new Osmose preset, "Bouncing Pad"!

This was performed on the Haken Continuum and Expressive E Osmose. I have never played two synthesizers with such an incredible range of dynamics and expression. I really hope that this comes through in the performance.

Using the MPE Arpreggiator on the Osmose, this patch feels both unpredictable and organic. It seems like it's reading my mind, as the most imperceptible change in pressure simultaneously change both the sound and the Arpeggiator in very musical ways. The Osmose is known for attaining more expression through pitch-bend on a per key basis (the bendy keys), but I have actually turned that feature off for this performance. Even without per-note pitch bend, the extreme sensitivity of the keys controlling the MPE Arpeggiator, on a preset that is already in constant motion, gives me access to a vast universe of expression.

And thanks to the unmatched sensitivity and complete pitch freedom of the Continuum, this relatively simple patch feels like playing an acoustic instrument. It has all of the sensitivity, feedback, and nuance that comes with playing an acoustic instrument, as well as all of the difficulty and unpredictability. There are so many unplanned moments when I first touch a note, and the pitch is not perfectly in tune, then I intuitively slide over to correct it. It imbues each performance with a very human quality.

This is in no way a perfect performance, but I've left it as is. I believe that all of the imperfections make it more honest and human. (And some of these happy accidents hopefully make it more musical).

Thanks so much for watching and reading. I hope this year brings you peace, happiness and success :)

- Josh"

video upload by Christophe Duquesne

Note the software indicates finger position and pressure while playing.

"Happy New Year 2024 - Osmose and Continuum Preset

The preset is designed to be played in several very different ways, the video is show several of them.
The recording is done using La Voix du Luthier's resonators mixed with the direct signal.

The Osmose version of the preset is adapted for the expression of the Osmose and also has some more editing macros

ESK - Haken Continuum + Waldorf Kyra 2


video upload by Metunar

"Another Haken and Kyra Demo. Not playing something meaningful, it's more about the sound.
In this Patch i use a lot of Parameter modulations with the Y direction on the Haken.

The Haken Continuum Fingerboard as a Midi controller for an Waldorf Kyra synthesizers.
The Waldorf Kyra is perfect in combination with the Haken because it updates all voices/multitimbral channels simultaneously while changing parameters. It has no MPE, but it is 8 channel multitimbral and so you can use it with every MPE controller. Only drawback, there are no global controllers (like modulationwheel), but with the Haken i don’t need them.
No external effects are used.

ESK - Haken Continuum + Waldorf Kyra


video upload by Metunar

"The Haken Continuum Fingerboard as a Midi controller for an Waldorf Kyra synthesizers. This Continuum is a an old Midi only version. The sensitivity is not so good as the new ones.
The Waldorf Kyra is perfect in combination with the Haken because it updates all voices/multitimbral channels simultaneously while changing parameters. It has no MPE, but it is 8 channel multitimbral and so you can use it with every MPE controller. Only drawback, there are no global controllers (like modulationwheel), but with the Haken i don’t need them.
The pitchbend on the Kyra has only a range of 1 octave, which is not much, but for my use, it's enough. No external effects are used.

Haken Audio ContinuuMini with Kenton USB Midi host MK 3


video upload by Ebotronix

"today the Kenton Midi host MK III has landed.
it needs some time to find my setting.
when I connect the HA ContinuuMini to der USB Host the ContinuuMini Display shows error.
next step I used a Lindy USB hub.
now the ContinuuMini works.
next step was to connect two Doepfer R2m Ribbon Controller to
Yamaha MCS 2 ( Midi Control Station with two input's) to the Kenton USB host Midi Input.
the kenton kept crashing and i had to reset it many time .
in the video pull of the USB power cable at 1.23, 3.18 and 4.50

Haken Audio ContinuuMini with Kenton USB Midi Host MK3
and two Doepfer R2m / Mutable Instruments Midipal
to control the EaganMatrix modular digital synthesizer.
the ContinuuMini doesn't work directly with the Kenton Midi Host
but it works with the Lindy USB hub
at 1.23, 3.18 and 4.50 the Kenton hung up,
to reset it I had to interrupt the USB power supply
