The beautiful video from the beautiful experience

What is the name of the keyboard like instrument that he plays in the video. I tried to find the credits on the Prince vault website, but I don't think it's listed.
On another note, this video does not receive the attention it deserves.

Wow that's really interesting. I never knew Prince invented this instrument. Thank you for this information.

Always loved that crunchy keyboard line from "beautiful". He played it during the JOY tour during sleep around if I remember correctly.

He played it a lot, so did Tommy. He pulled it out during "Get Ya Groove On" during the Emancipation Proclamation show on VH1/MTV/BET. It looks heavy as shit, tho.

Yes it probably wasn’t far off P’s height and body weight.
.
He had Tommy suspended on ropes flying round with it at the 95 AMA’s and on The Ultimate Live Experience tour. Even had smoke coming out of it at times
.
Also, gets a mention on Do Your Dance
