Developer and synthesist Geert Bevin (Software Engineering Lead and Product Designer at Moog Music, LinnStrument firmware, MPE specification) shared this video demo, exploring the expressive capabilities of the Expressive E Osmose synthesizer.
“This video conveys my initial impressions, some playing tips, and how to add even more expression with motion control through MidiWrist Unleashed”, notes Bevin. “At the end I combine it all in a short performance.”
Bevin’s setup features the Osmose, his Apple Watch app MidiWrist Unleashed, and the CME WIDI wireless MIDI connector.
Composer and instrument designer Roger Linn – In his latest video, offer his take on the current MPCs, demoing and reviewing the Akia MPC Live 2.
Linn is the father of the MPC, and worked with Akai to create and release the original MPC60 in 1988.
After collaborating on the classic MPC line, Linn and Akai went their separate ways. And some would argue that the MPC line went into a decline that lasted until a few years ago, when Akai introduced the MPC X and MPC Live.
Linn is impressed with the Akai MPC Live 2, saying “The current Akai company has done a very good job of not only honoring the workflow of my original design, but also bringing it into the present with modern features.”
