This new instrument looks like the strange hybrid fruit of random sexual activity between a bassoon, a bass guitar, a keyboard and a drum machine. The most interesting thing is that it looks very playable.
The audio aspect seems rather good for an instrument so versatile. Most of the time we are dissapointed by instruments that do everything at once but sound so terribly General Midi that they should be depicted with four stars at their shoulders.
The Eigenharp sounds rather classy, and the website states it took them eight years to develop. That's a lot.
It seems, however, that due to some amazing flaw of design, this instrument can only perform songs written by Moby.
In any case, it doesn't stop this instrument from being awesome. Now let's wait for the hordes of "real musicians" that will claim that this is not a real musical instrument like their banjos and ukeleles.
