EaganMatrix Micro - Osmose Engine in A Tiny Case

The Eagan Matrix sound engine is what you'll find in a number of highly expressive instruments - the Osmose, the Haken Continuum and mini, and now it's inside an unfeasibly small, self-contained unit with the EaganMatrix Micro, their smallest yet fully featured digital synthesizer.

Edmund Eagan demonstrates it in the video above together with what looks like an excellent wind controller, the WARBL - which is priced at around $290  the combination is incredibly expressive - and impressive.
