The SF MusicTech Summit Startup Showcase Challenge provides startups the opportunity to demo their services at the Summit. Last week a new batch of interesting startups took the honors and shared their work. Definitely worth a look to see who's making moves often before they're making news

Not all the startups who present at [SF MusicTech Summit](http://www.sfmusictech.com/?ref=hypebot.com) are strictly music-related, though the Thinkplay team pictured in the thumbnail above certainly are, but those that aren't are clearly relevant to music or musicians.

You can also [check the news](http://www.sfmusictech.com/startups-developers/?ref=hypebot.com) for a list of 2012's Notable Startups and the winners of February's Startup Innovators Challenge.

Above descriptions drawn from SF MusicTech's [list of winners](http://www.sfmusictech.com/startups-developers/?ref=hypebot.com).

**My Favorite?**

[Thinkplay's](http://www.thinkplayaudio.com/?ref=hypebot.com) ePedals look really interesting. I especially like the fact that users can create effects and sell them through Thinkplay's marketplace. Here's the full description:

"Thinkplay will revolutionize the music space by allowing musicians to build, sell, and perform with their own custom made virtual effect pedals. We have developed a software that allows musicians to trigger audio clips from notes on their instruments."

"For the first time you could have a DJing guitar player or a dubstep violinist. Entrepreneurial musicians can make money by selling their ePedals to other musicians via our dynamic online marketplace. Think it, play it."
