Hi there, awesome synth just got awesomer, great stuff! Could you implement QUERTZ-Keyboard-support as in the old ZynAddSubFX, would be smashing!

Alternative keyboard bindings are partially implemented at https://github.com/mruby-zest/mruby-zest/blob/master/qml/Keyboard.qml#L117-L129 . Some work would be needed to ensure that non-ascii characters are handled correctly on multiple platforms, but it should be a relatively straightforward enhancement.

After building the current zyn-fusion, qwerty and azerty can be selected as keyboard layouts. Is there a particular reason why qwertz is not?

As per the earlier comment. The other keyboard layouts are not fully implemented. Looking at mruby-zest/example/ZynSettings.qml it would appear that the keyboard selector is not actually connected to anything leaving the operation in qwerty mode all the time.

I have seen the comment, but can't the keyboard layout handling in the released version be completed for the layouts now mentioned ? For on-the-road usage, the computer keyboard is useful, but less so if unexpected notes are playing.

I could change the source code before compiling, but it might be of more general interest to have this easily available.
