Lance,
Since we're on the cgs-synth mail group I thought you were referring to Ken's small mini
keyboard project board. Your verbage suggested the MFOS board mind you.
You used to be able to buy when Pratt-Read was the keyboard manual supplier to the
planet, such an item. Most I am aware of are Midi. You might cannibalize an otherwise
written off vintage synth for cheap, if you dare and salvage the keyboard assembly.
Not that much of a service tech to point you at modern sources of any suitable "OEM"
keyboard assembly that isn't midi'd out already.
Otherwise you might find simple switches of some kind for a eclectic DIY touch keyboard
which appeals to me somehow, ... one day. Maybe someone else listening can be more
helpful.
