Banana Keyboard
The SoundHouse Special Access Kit is made up of the Banana Keyboard and software for your computer allowing you to program the clever Banana Keyboard to be whatever your students need it to be!
- Play the sounds of any instrument your students choose to play
- Compose songs to sing and play along with
- Play back words and speech – for example, use one key or switch press to introduce the class concert with a recorded message and the next to set the concert performance in motion!
- Play back a series of recorded messages – using keys on the keyboard to activate the message sequence step-by-step
- Record your students’ own musical compositions
The Banana Keyboard has sixteen keys configured like an oversized piano, but curved to suit the radial movement of an arm. It may be placed on a wheelchair or a desktop and students need only to lightly touch the surface of the keyboard to activate any music, sounds or speech which have been programmed into each key of the Banana Keyboard.
The Banana Keyboard also has ports which allow for connection of up to eight switches for activation of keys on the keyboard. This means that students with severe physical disabilities are able to join in with more physically able students to make music and perform musical compositions together. Rather than having to press a key to make music, they simply press a switch and the Banana Keyboard makes the music for them!
