All-In-One Control Surface

You no longer need multiple scattering devices with redundancy of buttons and dials. Mine S is compact, efficient, and seamlessy fits in with your workflow in any situation: in your studio, in a live, or in your office.

Plug-in only the modules you need! Optimize spaces and avoid waste and redundancy!

Easy switch between tasks

You can control multiple software, devices, and protocols even at the same time for maximum flexibility and fluid transition from one task to the next, boosting your productivity

Other Main Features & Benefits

Features & Benefits

Easy to Reconfigure

You can swap out (even on air) and replace any module you need for a seamless performance.

Advanced Setup

You can easily map and configure Mine S for complex tasks and assign multiple protocols (such as MIDI, OSC, …) and software to each module

Endless Applications

Intuitively interfaces with a wide range of software and devices, and delivers the ultimate experience for DJs, VJs, producers, musicians, lighting technicians, broadcasters, photo/video editors and more!

Long Lasting

Mine S is durable and updates regularly. You can add new modules or simply reconfigure them in the future, so you don’t have to buy a new controller.

AI Self-Recognition

Mine S is able to recognize position, orientation and type of module inserted. That means it can more easily map the controller and get you started on your creative endeavor faster.

Match your Software

With Mine S you can create a unique control surface that matches perfectly with the layout of the software you are using, eliminating user error that comes from switching back and forth from device to screen!

Store your Settings

Mine S remembers each module setup, so if a module has moved to another position, the system will memorize all of the info from that module and keeping the same setup (if desired).

Design for All

Mine S is Designed for All, including people with disabilities. In fact, the possibility of configuring a layout according to your specific needs is a great benefit because you can use the module with more efficiency and in most cases avoid errors.

Modules

The modules are diversified according to the function they perform. Each module contains a microcontroller that allows the execution of complex functions and the storage of information.

These are the 6 modules presently available now, but we are designing many new modules!

PAD

Pressure sensitive Pad with customizable RGB LED (1x1 position)

2 BUTTONS

2 toggle on/off Pads with customizable RGB LED (1x1 position)

POT

270° rotary potentiometer, native 12 bits, 4096 steps (1x1 position)

ENCODER

Infinite Encoder with mappable Push button and Green LED Ring composed by 13 LEDs (1x1 position)

SLIDER

60mm travel linear potentiometer, native 12 bits, 4096 steps
(1x3 position)

BLANK

For covering the empty spaces on the case
(1x1 position)

MineApp

MineApp is the Specialwaves’ proprietary software for Mac, Windows, (and Linux in the future) that allows you to easily and deeply configure each module on Mine S.

From MineApp you can configure the protocol of communication, the application or the device you want to control, and setup specific functions to each module. In this way, you can control more than one software or device at a time for maximum flexibility and maximum smooth transition from one task to the next.

These are just few things you can setup with MineApp:

  • default MIDI functions (Channels,  CCs, Notes, …)
  • special behaviours of each module (Threshold, Led Behaviour, Pad Sensitivity, Dynamics, Min and Max, …)
  • specific settings for each profile
  • keyboard and mouse shortcuts (soon)

'' The best thing about Mine S is that after doing a live set, you can change the layout the next day making it a brand new controller... I love it ''
Dusty Kid
DJ Producer
'' I'm often programming off stage whilst the artist is on stage with a controller. In this situation, I sometimes can't have a second controller in my setup. So I need a highly configurable one which can be mapped to the controls I need and reflect those controls physically. There are always redundant controls on many controllers which are a waste of space, Mine S totally change this! ''
