It should also be noted that both Eigenharps currently only operate with Apple computers, but the company is looking to support Windows computers sometime in 2010.

An Instrument of Today
It's not everyday that a brand new type of musical instrument is introduced to the world. However, Eigenlabs, based in Devon, has done just that with their release of the Eigenharp Alpha and Pico, instruments that combine multiple physical ultra-sensitive keys, a strip controller, and a breath pipe with proprietary software. All of this provides almost endless sound possibilities from piano and synths to cello and clarinet as well as being able to tap into second-party soft instruments. It's also possible to program the Eigenharp or double up on live sounds while you're playing. The software is in its early stages, so I'm sure there will be improvements and additional features/capabilities as time moves forward, but for now there is plenty to keep anyone busy.
