Tinami MD-1 Custom Midi Controller Now on Kickstarter

You might remember the Tinami MD-1 introduced at Sonar 2017. Tinami wrote in to let us know they are now on Kickstarter.

"Tinami is a small hardware startup specialized in gear for musicians, producers and live performers based in Germany and Ecuador.

We’ve been working for 2 years in our first product the MD-1: the first stylish, affordable and high quality custom MIDI controller in the market. The special thing about the MD-1 is that it will be custom-made for each user upon ordering it – so it will contain the features needed instead of unnecessary extras which are never used.

We’ve been working really hard in this project for 2 years and now we are proud to say that MD-1 is mostly done and we are very excited with the results.

In order to achieve MD-1 production we released a Kickstarter campaign today to reach 35000€ that will help us finish development, refine, test, debug and produce 200 units."

"The MD-1 is the first stylish, affordable and high quality custom MIDI controller on the market.

After studying the relationship of musicians, producers and live performers with their MIDI controllers for several months we have concluded that the next step on the MIDI devices is customization.

Why buy a midi controller mostly never use?

The special thing about the MD-1 is that it will be custom-made for each user upon ordering it – so it will contain the features needed instead of unnecessary extras which are never used.

Giving all of our users the chance to build their own custom MIDI controller gives us infinite possibilities of configurations and layouts. Unlike how complex it sounds, we wanted to make it really simple for you to design your controller.

1. Go to our website www.tinamilab.com

2. Do you need knobs? Knobs with buttons? Or maybe some faders? Design the layout that you need by simply dragging and dropping the components you prefer.
