Studio Residents TangibleFX need your help with crowd funding for the development of their new product, the MIDI-Moov.

What is the MIDI-Moov?

The MIDI-Moov is a wireless, movement sensitive MIDI-controller that you can attach anywhere on your body using a Velcro strap. It plugs into existing effects pedals that are have a MIDI input, as well as computer software such as Logic Pro, Cubase and Ableton Live. The Moov lets you manipulate any combination of effects within 1 axis of movement, of which you have 3 to choose from, namely X, Y or Z. Think of these axes as simply any movement in 3D space depending on what way up you have the device. For example, X, Y, Z movement could be analogous to up-and-down, side-to-side and front-to-back movement.



The MIDI-Moov comes in two parts, a transmitter (the bit you strap to your instrument) and a receiver (the bit that goes to your pedal / computer). The transmitter sends movement data to the receiver that subsequently sends MIDI data to whatever it’s attached to. In the picture above the transmitter is the red box and the receiver is the black box.

IndieGoGo Campaign
http://www.indiegogo.com/The-MIDI-Moov-from-TangibleFX

TangibleFX are currently raising money to make more MIDI-Moovs. We have a couple of costly prototypes made with off-the-shelf components. By raising more money we can buy cost-effective components and better quality materials, in bulk, and get them out there to the world's performers!

This is a very new concept with a very diverse range of uses. We know we have only scratched the surface; the Moov's full potential is unknown. We want this campaign to help us get the Moovs to professional musicians, so we can harness their creativity and fully unleash the power of this technology. 

Ultimately, we want this money to help us get this product into stores and into the hands of musicians everywhere, so we can start evolving the way you interact with your music!

Take part in crowdfunding this campaign and you will receive a variety of unique gifts, from a personalised thank you video from TangibleFX to a fully customised, gold plated MIDI-Moov, complete with full training from the creators and all the software you could ever wish for to start making music with your Moov.
