The Behringer X-Touch Mini is a compact USB controller with encoders, buttons and a fader — hands-on control of your DAW or software from a surface small enough to sit beside a laptop.

Behringer X-Touch Mini Ultra-compact Universal USB Controller

If you’re looking for full-scale DAW and plug-in control, without the full-scale footprint, then the Behringer X-Touch Mini Ultra-compact Universal USB Controller was made for you. For many of us, our studios are wherever we plant our laptops. The compact X-Touch Mini control surface is one of those wonderful tools that can make your mobile rig much more efficient. It may only be about the size of a laptop keyboard, but it delivers all of the hands on control you need to keep your fingers off the mouse and your head in the game. A set of eight rotary controls, 16 illuminated buttons, and a single quality 60mm slider let you control your mix, plug-ins, and virtual synths with ease. What’s more, you get two program layers worth of control via MIDI or Mackie Control, so you can instantly switch setups on the fly.
