It also boasts an arpeggiator, delay, and an intuitive yet extensive physical interface for designing your sounds. At only $499.99 (most high-end synths will run you into the thousands), the response to the Minilogue has been overwhelmingly positive across the blogosphere and social media. The release date is scheduled for January 21st. Try not to get too hot and bothered while watching this new demo video from the folks at Sweetwater.
