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.
