2012-01-20
Junio is a 3d multi-touch pad controller and what we have we have a functioning talking to Ableton Live at the moment and I'll kind of I'll just play with a little bit and I'll explain kind of what's going on so right now we have the pads and kind of a drum mode where can launch scenes or drum samples we also have volume control map to this slider this is for the drum track when the when the volume controls not being used it functions as a vu meters you can see the levels bounce on each of these sliders pretty close yeah pretty close each pad can output pressure velocity and XY I'll show the extra-wide functionality see the auto filter up here is functioning in an XY fashion right now I have this bottom slider map to the cross fader in Ableton but it because it's multi-touch it can also be configured to pinch like maybe it's a frequency range on the filter we also have another mode which we call grid mode where basic is going to function like a drum machine where I could go kick snare kick snare kick snare get kick so you can see the the kicks there is basically it allows you to program just like a rolling drum machine the scrub controller and even the switches on the kunio have pressure sensitivity so like an example is let's say I mapped oh you could scroll through patches with these two buttons the harder you press the button the faster it would scroll through the patches and whatnot it's scheduled to be a street price of about 200 bucks and we're planning to ship late March early April to the general public and we're super excited about it yes how did that well basically we were originally looking to try to get funded of about 15,000 to get started and when the dust all cleared and then the deadline hit we'd raised 165 thousand dollars which is basically approximately 700 units that are gonna they're gonna ship in March I don't think so you know in a way it's kind of nice because you know what the demand is gonna be as opposed to trying to project it and we have people rooting us on you know people are like investors as well as customers you know and it also allows development to be a little more open you know we've had updates on our progress and it's been really cool the last day of the Kickstarter project I hit refresh you know like 35 times to see how you're doing but yeah I kept yelling out to my wife we made 160 thousand one hundred sixty-four thousand so it's just really exciting and it's a new way of doing business that I think is it's really cool like having people you know having patrons you know actually investing what you're doing so I'm really excited about that as well Oh
