Minimonsta Quotes
For me the Minimonsta is a wonderful time machine taking me back to playing with the Mahavishnu Orchestra or my group with Jeff Beck. But beyond that, with it's polyphony and 'Melohmagic' it outplays the Memorymoog, which was the foundation for my sound of Miami Vice. It's incredible.

There's simply nothing out there that comes close to this little beauty

I love the low end on the Minimonsta! And its flexibility. It ran great on my G4 and AMAZING on my MacPro.
- Dean Coleman (DJ, Remixer & Producer)

I've tried two moog modular emulators in the past and to say they compare poorly is a massive understatement. In fact I'd say that having had a good play with Darren Emerson's Moog Voyager last week, which did make me a tad moist and furnished my visage with a greenish hue of envy, that the Minimonsta is so good the urge to invest in one has dissipated completely!
- Steve Cobby (Fila Brazillia, The Cutler)

Purists and pioneers alike will love the Minimonsta - to build on a classic is no mean feat

A fine emulation of the much-loved Minimoog, and, dare we say, an improvement on the original!

I've owned Minimoogs from the early '70s through the late '90s. Of all the emulations of that instrument I have experienced, Minimonsta is clearly the most authentic.
GForce has done its homework very well and produced a software synthesizer that is almost indistinguishable from the hardware synth it emulates. The modulation flexibility added by the LFO/XADSR matrix and the Melohman functions brings it to a new level in software synthesizer performance.

....this instrument represents a quantum improvement over the original and leaves all competing Moog emulators smoldering in the dust. A perfect recreation with amazing new features

I closed my eyes and could not believe it was not the real thing

Responsive, realistic, utterly 3-dimensional..... does to the minimoog what the impOSCar did to the Oscar, and more.... another beautiful synthesizer from GForce. CONGRATULATIONS!

The GForce suite of plug-ins (Minimonsta, OSCar & Oddity) are fatter than a ten dollar pork chop! They are very usable in a wide variety of styles of music.
They're great in the studio or on the road in my Neko
64 virtual synth keyboard. They really do offer a real great taste, MORE
filling sensation!
- Morris Hayes (Keyboardist for Prince & Maceo Parker)

Just wanted to say that Minimonsta is my absolute reference while making sounds for other people. Please forgive me if you find a few attempts at cloning Minimonsta sounds in several other synths!

The Minimonsta does a great job of blending the classic analogue sound with todays modern technologies but does not compromise the sound. It can be deep and quick at the same time.
Whether I go to the great presets or dial something in, I'm always confident I will get something close to what I want and it has a very transparent sound.
It also never crashes and seems to be very consistent when I turn it on. I love how the effects works and will always lock to beat clock, and that it is very easy to use.
To be honest I probably use Minimonsta, the most. The thing is on every record I make!
- Carmen Rizzo (Coldplay, Seal)

The Minimonsta, ImpOSCar and Oddity are my favorite go-to virtual
synths - hands down. In the fast pace world of interactive music scoring
and sound design for video games, you have endless creative
possibilities with this killer suite of plug-ins. They are unequivocally
the FATTEST sounding plug-ins and programmable beasts on the planet!

I have owned a minimoog for about 10 years, in which time it has become an important part of the Archive sound. I never had the minimoog midi converted so i was more than happy when i got the minimonsta.
My first impression was that of relief. The important thing about the minimoog is that it is RAW, no frills and always leaves an unforgetable mark on a tune (especially the bottom end ).
The minimonsta has definitely achieved this and a whole lot more. If you delve in to it as i have you can go to outer space, especially with the automation in logic.
There really are no limits to this software and you can really create you own sound rather than it always sounding like a minimoog.
A must have piece of software for any progressive, electronica bands.

A brilliant piece of kit. I use a Moog Voyager, and this sounds as good as if not better, it's fully automated, has mad LFO possibilities-and costs a lot less!
- Pascal Gabriel (Brian Ferry, Erasure)

The ability to sculpt the sound using both hands makes the Minimonsta a real musical instrument, rather than just a programming tool
