We are taking the idea of a music studio or live performance setup, built entirely out of hardware, and boiled it down to a range of very compact and affordable products. The set includes a drum machine, a wavetable synthesizer, an analog filter, a mixer and a speaker. It gives you the feel and fun of jamming with hardware equipment, all bundled in a ready-to-use set with an impressive sound quality.
Each device is powered by a rechargeable battery and can be used standalone or as part of the set. You don’t need any software or mobile phone. Our mixer allows you to also integrate other hardware with it’s trigger syncing feature.
What we introduce here is the first set of minijam machines – the “tek” edition. Machines that are specific to this edition have “tek” in their names. Support us and you will see many more editions in the future.
The risks of this project are low. We have already finished a lot of prototyping, material research and testing as well as already produced a small batch of pre-production units with our established suppliers. PCB’s are already fully functional but might undergo another revision. The firmware will undergo further optimizing for minor usability and sound improvements. The enclosure has undergone several prototyping cycles already, we’ve tested a range of materials, gluing, folding and printing technologies. The side panels are already injection molded samples and just need a few slight adaptions.
Of course it can still happen that there are minor delays, because we can’t foresee everything. Surprises lurk everywhere.
