    Hehe, I have one of [url=http://www.fagerstrom.com/]these[/url], its kinda futuristic.. ;)
  • StingrayStingray Elite Ranger
    Since [I]Professional Bull Rider[/I] I'm not surprised by anything any more.

    Let me guess, you still need to blow into those ePipes as well? :D

    Nope. But you can play them with earphones, that way I dont have to make my neighbours crazy. :)

    What a novel idea!! You could even learn how to play the violin that way. :D

    go look through some of the eigenharp pico contest videos (play something on the pico, geta chance to win an alpha), there's some good stuff in there too! i've been tempted by this lil thing for a while now...

    To be fair, there's a good reason for keeping the blowing idea: it's an extra form of control over the instrument, giving it a wider capability.

    Even though those instruments look funky, they are no toys.

    Just like the pedals you get for keyboards... I guess.

    Yeah, I think so. It's basically imitating an analogue device, and in doing so trying to maintain the power of the analogue inputs.
