Use familiar gestures to easily animate the sound of your favourite hardware and software synths.
Push your favourite synths further
Press Touche to activate a filter on your hardware synth or gently bow Touche's plate to add arpeggiator action to your favourite software synth. These are 2 examples of the many possibilities Touche can interact with your gear. This standalone MIDI controller simply translates your gestures into data (MIDI, CV or USB). Touche precisely allows you to modulate any sound, from the subtlest brush to the wildest strike.
Sturdy & precise
Touche boasts a solid monoblock design with few replaceable moving parts, equipped to translate anything from the softest touch to the roughest rhythms, with pinpoint precision.
Universally compatible
Touche is compatible with any software or hardware synthesizer thanks to its built-in CV, MIDI and USB outputs. Internal memory even lets you control hardware synths without a computer.
Ready to use
Touche can control all your favourite third-party software instruments too. Pre-made mappings for all best-selling VST instruments, as well as hardware instruments, are included.
Sounds included
Touche ships with UVI Workstation, a plug-in providing over 250 custom-designed instrument sounds. These sounds come pre-mapped with Touche so you can focus on producing.
A new, tactile playing experience
Touche bypasses the traditional limitations of most synths' and MIDI controllers' keybeds, seamlessly connecting your gestures to sound. Less programming, less automation, more creativity!
4 degrees of freedom
Each direction on the control surface affects different parameters. Combine movements for amazing effects.

Touch plate
We are all different, and your Touche can be different too. You can fully perfect your Touche's response with adjustable controls, and you can even customise its appearance with our range of alternative touch plate finishes, available separately.
Cylinder
The cylinder is the heart of the Touche - it controls exactly how your Touche reacts to pressure. The 'Shore 40 Pink Cylinder' is the classic all-rounder and is included with Touche. It's suited for a wide range of gestures, soft or hard, progressive or percussive. But for those interested in a softer or harder response, we have a range of other cylinders to try.
No computer required
Touche can operate completely standalone, controlling MIDI and CV hardware without a computer connected. Pre-prepare your perfect control mappings and select and recall them live onstage - Touche is the perfect companion for adding expression to your live rig.
