Supplied with their own ADSR envelopes, the filters offer low-, band- and high-pass modes and are hardwired in a simple serial configuration. The raw samples are processed by two 'analog modelled Xpander filters”, which have a not unpleasant response - but you wouldn't describe them as particularly Mini-like. The 1971 Minimoog Model D and a 2011 Minimoog Voyager XL are presented with identical layouts but quite different graphics, reflecting the front panel appearance of the original instruments. Doggedly recording every oscillator across every key then repeating the process for multiple overdrive settings must have a been labour of love - and this was done not for one, but for two instruments. This, it transpires, is due to the very extensive sampling behind it. At 1.8GB, UltraMini is a surprisingly large download. It runs inside the free UVI Workstation shell, which can operate as a stand-alone application as well as a plug-in.

UVI's UltraMini is a software synth based on samples drawn from the classic Minimoog.
