Cool - what a great combination/multi controller.

Does it come in Sunbusrt?
I'm interested to know what powers this unit, & how log a charge lasts.

He might have to re-name it though, & as Franzoni mentioned about the Strat.
I guess this might become known as the Eigen.
Sort of doesn't have that cool ring about it.

I'd still get one, & a stand.

Regards Dr. Bob

Yeah, I was in a house band in the early 1990's too. And this thing is the the natural evolution of that scene. Problem is the scene died, and so should this thing. Apologies to those who like it, but this thing is cheezy crap...

Hey Laurie

If it was inexpensive enough,
I'd love something like this for the project studio,
and a Chapman stick.
And a Whammy 1
And an original Aussie made "Fairlight" sampler/synth.
and a SG-1
and ....
and ....
and ....
and ....
and ....
and ....
and ....
and .

Oh crap - I just ran out of $$ Cash $$$ & studio space again.
And have G.A.S. pains

Regards Dr. Bob

The Alpha model - aimed at professional musicians - costs �3,950. There's a smaller Pico version for �349.

The flagship Eigenharp Alpha comes with a price tag not far short of �4,000




The first band to use this (a band who sound like Pendulum) might make it purely for being unique, but It won't catch on.

Cool indeed.

Here's the direct-link to Eigen Labs:
http://www.eigenlabs.com

The Alpha is over $6K(USD) while the Pico is $560.
I'd like to buy the Pico but these units are Mac only.
