"An Eigenharp is a brand of electronic instrument made by Eigenlabs, a company based in Devon, UK. It resembles a combination of a bassoon and sitar in appearance, with buttons that can be pressed and a mouthpiece that can be blown into to make notes.

It was first made available in 2009 in two sizes, Eigenharp Alpha, the fully featured model, and Eigenharp Pico, a smaller and cheaper model. It is the first musical controller made for both playing and sequencing.

British entrepreneur John Lambert founded Eigenlabs in 2001 in a barn on his Devon farm with a small team of designers and programmers and some private funding."-Wise Wiki

Thanks.

I cannot see this instrument ever going mainstream because of it's cost ($6600) and lack of "class" and prestige.

However I am glad the company took their time to create such an instrument as it is a representation of how music is evolving along side technology.

Heard a couple of songs and I liked how they sounded. I think it has a lot of potential. I'd be cool to find someone with a good deal of experience with it and hear how it brings it all out.

It reminded me of this that I saw a few year ago. You should check it out.
