3D Printing
Two simple designs were created in an attempt to make the potentiometers on the cello body more accessible. The longer one was found to be very effective, especially when placed parallel to the strings, as it compliments the vertical flow of movements relating to the strings. However, the body of the cello and other potentiometers restrict the maximum range.
The flatter, disc shaped design was created to allow adjustments to be made using the bow. This worked well but the orientation of the potentiometer made it awkward to access and needs to be reconsidered. Additionally, the finite range of the potentiometer was also problematic and could be replaced with an endless encoder. This would allow for the maximum range of the encoder to be adjusted to suit the bow length.
Future developments will include experimenting with various different sizes shapes and placements.
