But most of the enhancements to the device are software-based, with only a few companies daring to create significant hardware add-ons to Apple's precious mobile computer. Now a San Francisco-based start-up called Miselu has decided to introduce a bold piece of hardware that can instantly turn your iPad into an analog-style music device.

Miselu's C.24 functions both as a sleek carrying case and as an amazingly functional musical keyboard once you dock your iPad and connect it to the device via Bluetooth. The two octave wireless keyboard also has a pitch bend strip and a set of eight buttons that allow the player to control the piano-style keyboard's octave assignments.
