Jim Antaki, PhD the inventor of the ELX, is a biomedical engineering professor by day. His accomplishments include developing the first maglev heart-assist pump for infants.
As a labor of love, he has devoted 20+ years to the technological advancement of the harmonica. He strives to improve the enjoyment of this delightful instrument--through research of physics, physiology, and phonetics and by engineering innovations that enhance the playing experience.
This is an exciting project and I support whatever measures you take to make it succeed.....Henry
In reference to a case for the ELX. I think that, because it has somewhat fragil electrical components, it needs the protection of a hardshell case--that might also be water proof or water resistent. Perhaps the case should also have room for a cord.---Michael
