SoundForce announces hardware controller for the TAL-BassLine-101
Is it time to cancel that bid on the beaten up old SH-101 on eBay?
The SFC-101 is a dedicated MIDI controller for the TAL-BassLine-101 plugin, an emulation of the Roland SH-101 synth. However, SoundForce insists the SFC-101 is "not just a MIDI controller", but offers you a complete hardware experience within your software environment.
As with other SoundForce controllers the SFC-101 can be used with any other MIDI-mappable software. Like the SFC-60, the SFC-101 is USB-bus powered and has been successfully tested in Logic, Cubase, Pro Tools, Live, Reaper, Bitwig and Reaper.
The SFC-101 is available to preorder now for €249 from the SoundForce online store.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
