Love this and use it almost everytime I record and produce music. It adds so much more dynamics compared to other controllers. Total game changer in music production. It was easy to setup and love the instruments Expressive E has created that works with this as well. Its so much fun and couldn't even imagine using synth instruments without this now.

I bought it mainly as a companion for my Moog Sub37 and other hardware synths, but also for some soft synths as well. Beautiful and sturdy looking hardware. Was able to get it running quite fast, thanks to some tutorial videos. The Touche offers a new approach to control the sound, and I must say I really like the feeling and the feedback that you get from the mechanism and the wooden skin. Much more intuitive than turning on the knobs. On the software side, I first had problems with mapping Omnisphere in the Touche plug-in, but Expressive E's support was responsive and swiftly sent me some helpful instruction to make it work eventually. I don't know any other controller where you have precise control over that many parameters and it just feels right.

I was initially very excited about the “Touché” - the concept behind it is innovative and promising, offering a glimpse into what could potentially be a game-changer in its category. From the functionality that I was able to experience, the Touché indeed seemed like it was going to be a great addition to my musical arsenal. The features it boasts are not only unique but also intuitively designed, making it apparent that a lot of thought went into the product's development. However, my initial enthusiasm quickly turned into frustration and resentment due to the lack of customer support. After encountering issues with the product not working as described in the instructions, I reached out to their support team several times, hoping for a resolution or at least some guidance. Unfortunately, my efforts to seek help were met with nothing more than a form letter. The response stated that their focus was on a new product launch, which was taking up all their time. This lack of support is not only disappointing but also undermines the potential greatness of the Touché. It's unfortunate because the Touché had the potential to be an outstanding product. But without the necessary customer service and support to back it up, its value diminishes significantly. A great idea and a potentially great product shouldn't have rendered useless because of poor customer service. I wanted to love the Touché, but without the support needed to make it work as intended, it's difficult to see it as anything but a missed opportunity.

This product is a must-have for songwriters, composers, and producers. The included software synths are plentiful. The controller itself is responsive and well-constructed. I ended up buying the companion Arche' software, which provides wonderful modeled violins, violas, and cellos. You can play the device right out of the box, but I recommend spending some time with the manual and software (and practicing) to benefit from the deeper features — it will do whatever you want, but you need to know how to set up if you want to move beyond the default synth presets. Highly recommended!!

The media could not be loaded. Having recently received the Touché standalone full version (not the LE), I have to say- it immediately impresses me. Build quality is definitely high. It is considerably larger than I thought it would be, but I think that adds to its operation. Of course, the Lié software will only function as well as your PC is optimized for it, as with any DAW or instrumental software. I've used it with the following hadware: 1. Behringer Crave 2. Korg Volca Modular 3. MPC Live (partially) I have only explored about half of the presets in Lié as of now, but enjoy it so far. Some of the presets are a bit rudimentary but there are a large number, which again impresses me. I don't understand what difficulties some reviewers have been undergoing, but a lot can vary from user to user. I am running WIN 10 on a barebone 64bit PC, with a scant 2 Gigs of ram, pretty much minspec for running most DAWs. So if you have a hardcore rig you should probably knock it out of the park comparison wise to my own experience. Overall Summary: 1. Build Quaility - High. 2. Safe Packaging - Good. 3. Software - High Quality. 4. Instructions - Adequate albeit minimal. If there was more depth here in box I would probably give a perfect rating overall if they included more upfront info on use and optimization. 5. Interoperability - Out of the box Good, will update on further inspection.

This device is amazing. If you use virtual instruments, and you want to manipulate many variables in real time with sensitive control, get this touché. It really is sensitive to such small movements. You COULD just use wheels and sliders to control your settings, but it’s still not the same. This touché is next level. The magic is controlling so many things organically. A wheel or slider will never feel like this. You can tell the computer so accurately what you want. Get it!
