Understanding how FluxRig works, from the data engine to the community mechanics.
About FluxRig
FluxRig is built to solve the fragmentation of hardware music gear data. By combining a visual planning tool with a crowdsourced database, we enable musicians to design, share, and validate their setups with precision.
The platform operates on a "Give-to-Get" model: users contribute data (specs, images, compatibility info) to earn reputation (Honor) and unlock advanced features (XP). This ensures the database remains accurate, up-to-date, and community-owned.
✓Device Data Verification
The heart of FluxRig is its trusted database. We use a multi-stage process to turn raw submissions into verified, "Standard" specifications that everyone can rely on.
1. Submission
A user adds a new device. Often this initial data is incomplete (e.g., missing dimensions or specific ports).
2. Crowd Improvement
Other users spot gaps and fill in missing details. Each valid contribution earns Honor.
3. Verification
Once critical fields are confirmed by multiple high-Honor users, the device earns the Verified badge.
Game Mechanics
Transparency is key. Here is exactly how our XP, Honor, and Dispute systems function.
1. XP System (Engagement)
XP measures your activity and contribution volume. It drives your Rank progression and unlocks practical benefits like more Device Slots.
2. Honor System (Trust)
Honor measures the quality of your contributions. It is earned by validating data and winning conflict votes. High Honor establishes you as a trusted authority.
3. Conflict Resolution
When users submit conflicting data for the same device, the community votes to decide the truth. Winners gain Honor; false data is rejected.
4. Quality Control
The community polices itself. Bad actors or spam setups can be flagged. If a setup accumulates enough flags, it is hidden, and the owner loses XP unless they successfully appeal.
