Livid Instruments' range of specialised controllers just got a little bigger, or will do assuming the Kickstarter campaign gets funded - and it rather looks like it will (currently at more than 75% funded of $40k goal with 29 days to go).

The new minim is a "pocket sized, wireless instrument designed for mobile music making" oh, an apparently its the world's first.

With a list price of $149 - you can get yours at just $79 with one of the Early Bird Starter packs - expected to ship Sept 2015 Feb 2016.

I can't help but be reminded of the Numark Orbit - remember that? (link to our review)

Essentially it will give you 21 (it looks like) backlit buttons, with a motion control sensor too to control your desired software target. Though presumably you could route the MIDI out into the real world too given and interface you can route it to.

As with many well pitched Kickstarter campaigns, its looking like its going to be a success - good luck folks. Though am I the only one who's getting - "Its so easy to make music with this" Kickstarter marketing fatigue? What happened to creating music being a skill?

Anyhow, that might be just me.
