The VC-Touch is a MIDI controller and switcher from SixEight Sound Control, listed in the switcher category alongside the company's VC-mini. It is built to sit on a pedalboard and send MIDI commands to other units, which places it among MIDI pedals rather than the sound-shaping boxes like overdrive pedals or delay pedals it would be used to control.1
What it does
As a controller and switcher, the VC-Touch's job is not to shape tone itself but to command other gear: switching presets on MIDI-capable pedals and rack units, and changing settings from one place on the board. SixEight Sound Control positions it in its switcher range next to the VC-mini, the two units sharing the VController family.1
RockBoard's PedalPedia lists the circuit type as analog, which for a MIDI controller describes the switching hardware rather than any audio path, since the unit's work is sending commands rather than processing the guitar signal.1
Power
The VC-Touch runs on 9V DC with a center-negative plug, the standard polarity for pedal power supplies. Its current draw is listed at 2000mA, which is high by pedal standards: most single outputs on a pedalboard power supply deliver a fraction of that, so the unit generally needs a supply output rated to match rather than a shared or daisy-chained feed.1
With a listed current draw of 2000mA, the VC-Touch will exceed the output of many standard pedal power supply outlets. Plan its power feed accordingly.1
Documentation and video
SixEight Sound Control publishes an English user manual for the VC-mini and VC-touch as a download, and the product page carries both an official product video and a demo video in English from the maker.1

Questions
What is the SixEight Sound Control VC-Touch?
The VC-Touch is a MIDI controller and switcher made by SixEight Sound Control. It is listed in the switcher category alongside the company's VC-mini, and it is built to sit on a pedalboard and send MIDI commands to other gear. The maker describes it as an analog-circuit unit that runs on 9V DC power with center-negative polarity.
How is the VC-Touch powered?
The VC-Touch runs on 9V DC with a center-negative plug, the same polarity as most pedal power supplies. Its current draw is listed at 2000mA, which is far more than a typical single output on a pedalboard power supply provides, so it generally needs its own dedicated supply output rather than a shared or daisy-chained one.
