Choosing the easy way(tm). Hoho. A simple electromotor would be cheapest, quitest, easiest, lightest and most reliable. It's not impossible, the mechanism would just need to be really clever. Tricky, but possible.

About to Alex's idea: Sounds good, but would be really pricey. The keyboard mechanism itself would be expensive enough for most users. No-one would buy it if it would cost like over 2000 euros. I'd just hope loads of knobs and eight sliders (perfect for Hammond and mixing). Nothing fancy - just the knobs.
