MPE: Demystified - creative tutorial #8

What is MPE (Midi Polyphonic Expression)? How will it change how you play synths and synthesizers forever? Watch film composer @JOSHMADOFF finally break down this fantastic technology in an approachable and musical way.

Yes, you will finally understand how MPE works and what it does for your music!

In the episode #8 of our Creative Tutorials series, Josh will go over the history of keyboard instruments, their somewhat complex relationship to "musical expression" and how MPE changes the game for all musicians.

Ultimately you'll realise that with our MPE synth Osmose, our MPE plugins and all other manufacturers' instruments from the MPE family, you can produce more expressive music with less programming!
