Has anyone tried to apply this "continuum controller" to microtonal music yet?

I know our own Carl wrote a review on it:

He gave it good reviews, though did mention some limitations. There are also YouTubes of Jordan Rudess playing one as well, but he's not doing anything microtonal outside glissandos I don't think. But I believe it can be set to play ETs other than 12 as well as JI, according to this:

I'd like to try one at least, but I wish the larger model had the full 9600-cent range like a B�sendorfer Imperial and not about three semitones short. It's also expensive; you pay for what you get.
