Tenori On

What’s the idea?

Will it be possible to get an input mode like the tenori in from Yamaha in the 90s?

Where would it go?

Maybe Keys....?

That’s an interesting idea @aleskibordeaux 🙏 Would you mind sharing a bit more detail on how you’d imagine it working on Reliq? The Tenori-on had a few different modes, so it would be great to hear which aspects you’d like to see most.

Hi Kyriakos,
i was thinking about the Bounce & Solo Mode from Tenori-On. You can find the specs in the Manual here:

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/267191/Yamaha-Tenori-On-Tnr-W.html?page=3#manual

In Bounce Mode the Playhead actually bounces between pressed points and triggers different sounds in the Tenori-On.
Reliq does not have sounds on board, so i'm thinling about the drum-rack or the sampler in Ableton Live which i could feed with may sounds. Maybe there's a chance for saying how many samples the Bounce Mode could trigger, starting from 16 like an MPC Grid getting to 64, 128 and so on. I'm thinking about a resolution that you could set in Reliq.

The Solo Mode is self explaining. The push of a button triggers a note on repeat. The repeat resolution is X and the pitch is on the Y axis.

That said i have to read the manual exactly, maybe i find more interesting features which could be implemented to reliq.
The other Seq Modes i find in reliq, except the Drum Mode which is in production as i read the discord threads.

Hey @aleskibordeaux — thanks for the detailed follow-up and for digging into the Tenori-On manual!

Bounce and Solo modes are both super inspiring, we’ve noted them internally as part of the broader Track Mode discussions.
