no, thats impossible as well. You have just ONE lever for a string. (I know, there are so many cool possiblities in our heads...but they are unfortunately limited by physics...)

Hi Fred no, that`s not possible with any of the palmbender systems. Having the possibility to raise AND lower a string in the same setup would reqire a much more complicated and bigger system, because the string has to be held in a "floating" postion. And that would only be possible with a...
