Concerns around ERAE 2 Touch sensitivity

I'm looking to pick up an MPE controller, and the ERAE line has been on my shortlist for a while now but I'm concerned with a number of threads regarding touch sensitivity. 


I'm looking for a MPE controller that requires very little actuation pressure - think using Procreate to draw with an iPad. My principal interest is with Acoustic Modeling (SWAM strings), so I'll be using my fingers to play/slide.


Narrowed it down to two choices: Erae 2 and the Linnstrument. Anyone know how they compare or alternatively have the sensitivity issues been resolved?

Good morning Shaun!


Are you still having pressure issues/questions? As of 2/26/26, I'm also having some Erae 2 issues using SWAM instruments, strings, horns, etc and the apparent lack of Erae 2 pressure sensitivity. With GeoShred and standalone SWAM: slides/glides/vibrato/etc work great but no pressure sensitivity. With Roli Seaboard 2 I have no slide/glissando or pressure issues with SWAM but unfortunately Roli only comes in a keyboard layout. 


So I am hoping Erae 2 will be my saving grace! I love it! But I may have to work as a stone mason for a year before I can play it ;-) 


What did you end up using?  And did you find any solutions for the pressure issue on Erae 2?
