Crowdfunding Corner: Soundbrenner Core: The 4-in-1 Smart Music Tool
Check it out on Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/352439100/soundbrenner-core-the-4-in-1-smart-music-tool?ref=project_build
The Soundbrenner Core is a 4-in-1 Smart Music Tool that brings all your most essential music tools in a premium wearable. It serves as your everyday watch plus a Vibrating Metronome, Magnetic Twist Tuner, and a Decibel Meter. The Core will allow you to focus on what matters; your music.
They started crowdfunding for their previous model (Pulse) and got $240k when they only asked for $15k. So today they launched on Kickstarter to raise money for their new model Core and Core Steel, asking for $50k and giving an opportunity to get the early backer benefits.
This is the first 4-in-1 wearable music tool that a musician needs to help them perform better: a vibrating metronome, a tuner, a sound meter and… a watch.
Starting price is $139.
