The classical piano and traditional music notation are flagrantly cringe.

Congrats on posting the only arrangement that's even cringier.

Ideally, something like the Axis keyboards should be used, that's keyed for easily accessible common chords.

Similar solution is already employed on chromatic button accordions anyway.

further explanation

 

your jankoshit meanwhile keeps the same piano arrangement only tries to make it more regular, keeping all its flaws in the process and only introducing redundancy without improving what it claims to address

This was Nietzsche's typewriter

 

Triggered traditionalists detected. Having a regularly ascending sequence of tones on your keys is the only thing that makes sense if you don't want your instrument to decide for you what to play.

 

And how could anything be "cringier" than having to learn a different pattern for every scale within the same mode? Oh, I know: Pretending that the notes in C Major are evenly spaced and basing your notation on that, which leads to a completely unnecessary accumulation of accidentials in your sheet music, that might be even worse than building pianos the way they are built - which, then again, is the reason this type of nonsense notation was accepted in the first place.

 

Of course I can easily anticipate your tit-for-tat response: "HuRR, yoU're THe oNe WHo'S TRiGgerREd, lel" Indeed I am, and proudly so! Because how could a thinking man not be insulted and infuriated by a bunch of complacent ne'er-do-wells whose only strenght is being on the side of the majority?

the janko keyboard is uber based

 

you basically get the guitar perk of memorizing specific shapes for certain sounds on the piano

Let me tell you what's cringier:

pretending that chromatic scale of semitones not only is but ought to be evenly spaced.

Protip: it never should have, this leads to dissonances because by making it evenly spaced, you're sacrificing clean rational intervals.

 

And, then, ironically, you also said:

I thought the idea behind making patterns regular was exactly that: so that you don't have to think what key you're in when you're playing, i.e. your instrument assisting you in not making mistakes.

 

it makes much more sense to have shapes for sounds like a dominant 7 chord or whatsoever that always stays same in whatever key you play it because all keys are the same anyway, what matters are the intervals between the notes

 

why should chords look dofferent for each key? it makes no sense

 

think of a guitar, chord shapes also stay sames for every key

 

 

Protip: it never should have, this leads to dissonances because by making it evenly spaced, you're sacrificing clean rational intervals.

 

actually nvm i think you misunderstood the purpose of the janko keyboard

actually nvm I think you misunderstood the purpose of the axis49/64 keyboards.

actually let me answer:

 

because, in fact, if you tuned your instrument perfectly, they are different.

approximating the tunings by making it into 12 equal semitones is what is incorrect.

yes but this isnt about tuning it is about how ypu play your instrument

Exactly, and if you insist on not maintaining the legacy layout based on C-major I would much prefer to pick the one that actually makes playing simpler rather than the one that only pretends to be revolutionary and instead excessively focuses on a single pet peeve.

From my point of view, the idea behind the janko keyboard is nice because you have to learn each shape/scale/chord/melody exactly ONCE and not 12 times for each key.

 

You probably never learned to play the piano.

See >>133110.

If you really want to go by this idea, take it one step forward and actually make the shape such that playing scales and chords (which will be most of what you're playing fast) is simple instead of keeping legacy arrangement.

 

10 years of classical piano education.

 

Btw, all scales and chords are still played the same.

The only difference is which finger you start on. But when you're playing it, the sequence is the same. Just shifted.
