Live at Wood Chip Fest 2025
I played my C=TAR at Wood Chip Fest, a small 8-bit music festival in Denmark.
The final part will be added here in the coming weeks, when I've finished editing it.

Great recovery! I'm curious what the fault was. Seems like it was interpreting the relative pitch bend as absolute?

Yes, this was my impression too. The middle rod is an absolute pitchbend, while the upper rod is relative. When I touched both the upper and lower rod at the same time, the instrument reacted as if I also touched the middle rod intermittently, and this caused the pitch to jump wildly up and down. I could avoid the problem by making sure not to touch both outer rods at the same time, but this was of course difficult after having practised a certain way.
However! I can't reproduce this phenomenon back home. The problem has magically gone away. This leads me to suspect either the outdoors environment (e.g. standing on the ground versus a floor) or some problem with the mains power. That's touch sensitivity for you. More experimentation is needed in order to pinpoint what really happened.
