Founded in 2003, the core members of the Austin, Texas-based Open Labs team bring together a wealth of experience earned from the fields of computer systems integration, musical instrument design and performance, application and GUI design, hardware design, and third-party developer management. Our office is also the factory for our products, and we design and build software and hardware for the Open Labs instruments right here at home. We are a company that is musician oriented; in that our products are custom-built to our individual customer's needs and desires. Our employees are musicians and computer experts, and our goal is to meet the highest standards, which are our own. With the advent of our products, the NeKo and the MiKo, and the compiled A-list artists that use them, Open Labs has become the industry standard for producers, composers and musicians of every genre.
