While some relatively older hardware products have included MPE support via firmware updates (the modern synths from Dave Smith – Prophet 6 and the collaboration with Tom Oberheim – OB-6), there are more and more new instruments coming out with support out-of-the box. Hardware synths, while not the subject of this article, have even less offerings that support MIDI Polyphonic Expression.

Ableton for example has implemented MPE in its DAW called Live in version 11, which was released in 2021. While the MPE specification has been with us for quite some time, only recently have we seen very good implementations. Hey guys! Today we are bringing you an ever-updating list of MPE VST products available right now on the market.
