Max from Germany got a SFC-60. He lives in Berlin and has been producing for over 10 years, most recently as one half of “The Loops Of Fury” (https://soundcloud.com/theloopsoffury/https://www.facebook.com/theloopsoffury). He’s currently producing solo, taking influence from early house, techno, ambient and soundscape sounds. He will put together a couple of EPs to release under a new moniker soon. I quote : “the SFC-60 has transformed my use of the U-NO-LX2 – it’s just like having a real Juno now and I couldn’t be happier!”
Today 3 SFC-60’s are leaving the SoundForce headquarters. 2 are going to Berlin, 1 for a customer and 1 for a reviewer of Beat.de (big German electronic music magazine). Another one is going to another reviewer of a the main local music production magazine here in Holland, Interface. This will hopefully spread some good words about the controller.
Other things… working on a very cool new feature for the SFC-60 firmware, more on that next week. And a new prototype board is coming friday of a new product! Exciting.
Mark was so hooked on the SFC-60 that he asked me to build him a prototype version of the 101. Quote : “for me the sooner the better – the juno controller is already one of the most important items in my studio and I use the Tal 101 more than the juno so it’s something I’m really looking forward to !” So I HAD to build me one before everybody else.
