SoundForce has been in touch to tell us about their Minimoog-style MIDI controller now on Kickstarter. The SoundForce SFC-Mini is a USB controller for Minimoog plug-ins such as the Arturia Mini-V and the NI Monark. It also works with the iMini iPad app. It is class compliant (plug&play) and compatible with Win/Mac/iPad.

A spokesperson told us, "Get hands-on control of your software synthesizer and bridge the gap between hardware and software!"

Features:

• 22 x rotary pots
• 21 x tact switches and LEDs
• 6 x 6-positions switches
• USB-powered class compliant device
• Dimensions: 32cm x 13cm x 4.5cm (fits in a backpack)
• Ableton, Logic, Pro Tools, Bitwig, Cubase, Reaper and much more
