Used for Monster, as specified in Herbie Hancock’s Electronic Instrument Glossary from September 14, 2016 (originally from the "2013 Sony Box Set Liner Notes").

Steiner EVI – An electronic valve trumpet using a similar concept to the Lyricon in that the mouth piece could measure the amount of air pressure being used, and a button near the thumb controlled the octave. This instrument was played by Herbie on his 1980 album Monster.
