Looks like it's about 976x531 give or take a pixel or two. I can see the gui if I get my face right up to the monitor so for me it is about the size but yea being skinnable wouldn't hurt.

Have you tried setting Windows display (scale and layout section) to 125%?
It would be cool if someone like satYatunes could make a larger sized skin, or maybe Plugmon.

No I'm not going to faff about with scaling for one plugin. All the other plugins I use on a regular basis can be resized to taste so no problem there.

But I agree a satYatunes skin would be nice but I don't see a skin or resources folder for MiniMonsta so it would require hacking the .dll or for GForce to work with a skin designer and that doesn't seem likely at this point.

Nice to see this in my Novation account. I'd never even checked that before, so thanks thread! I think Minimonsta still has a nice character even compared to some newer moogs.

Unfortunately GForce made this in collaboration with Ohm Force so the chances of GUI or other updates are quite low from what I've heard from them.

Yeah I think this is the first freebie (from Focusrite) that I've actually gotten excited about.

Same here. Not sure what some people had issues with.

Yes that caught me off guard as well. Considering it hasn't been updated since 2014 I can only image it would be pretty hard on many of the CPUs from that time period. No problem running it today.

It's almost unusable at 1920x1080 here but my eyes aren't what they used to be. I'd love to make some patches for MiniMonsta but the gui makes it just too unpleasant to work with for me and I have so many alternatives to occupy my time.

Still it sounds good and I appreciate the generosity of all involved especially since it's still on sale for $129.99 at Sweetwater.

I respect your opinion but I disagree, I think the color scheme is suitable for long periods of use. The GUI size is the issue for me, but I'll manage.

Today should be out the new one or am I wrong?

J.Ruegg · Post by **J.Ruegg** » Thu Oct 07, 2021 3:57 pm

Yeah, I was waiting for today (7th of October) but they changed the date on the novation page. New one should be at the 28th now.
Same with the Focusrite promo
