MP Midi Controller w/ Built-in Screen for VST2/3 & AU Plugins

Hardware MIDI controller for your DAW.

"The controller consists of hardware and software. Both hardware and software work together, with the software hosted within your DAW as a plugin, to create a unique workflow."


Details via MP MIDI Controller:

Control Software Plugins like Hardware

The MP MIDI controller consists of an 1920 x 1080 IPS Touchscreen display, the enclosure, the controller board and the 32 endless rotary encoders.

There is a big gap in the way we control software plugins in the DAW (VST2/VST3/AU) and hardware. The creative process degrades when you are forced to do things in series with the mouse.

Designing a sound on a hardware synthesizer is much different than doing the same on a software synthesizer.

The notion of reaching out and grabbing the control is more natural, and moving two controls at the same time allows you to try things that are just not possible with the mouse.

We have midi controllers, however with a typical midi controller you are limited in the number of parameters you can control and then you need to mark them on the actual controller with tape or an overlay. It’s just not practical.
Mapping in a DAW is not flexible enough to allow controlling software like hardware. Transfer of control is also impractical.

Whether you are working on an Instrument plugin or Audio effect, you can now reach any parameter control directly and try things out, just like working on a big console

That is what MP midi is all about, let your creative process flow by easily tweaking parameters on the plugin you see, just like a hardware unit

MP Midi is a combination of a hardware controller and software that runs in your DAW as a plugin and enables controlling each plugin as a hardware unit.

works in all major DAWs, Mac & PC that support VST3 or AU
control any VST2/3, AU plugins
audio effects & instruments

control via knobs, touch and mouse
Choose to control with the most convenient way your plugin's parameters.

The touchscreen also works as an additional touch monitor when not using the controller.

select a plugin in the DAW and control it
enhance / workflow

- automatically syncs all controllable parameters when selected
- automatically opens the plugin in controller when opened in DAW
- presets changed on third party plugins sync parameters automatically

link plugin parameters to encoders easily

parameter names are set automatically when linked and can be edited

create plugin presets
- Save your mappings as presets
- Organize your presets in folders on your computer
- Reuse your presets across different DAWs

find, load, control your third party plugins fast
MP MIDI finds your installed plugins and allows you to search by text and sort them by name, type and manufacturer.

When hosting for instruments it displays only the instrument plugins and when hosting for audio effects it displays only the audio effect plugins.

flexible encoder options
- resolution of each encoder
- polarity of each encoder
- response range of each encoder
- control multiple parameters with a single encoder
- use all options in combination

record automation in DAW
recording automation of each of the encoders in the DAW, like done with any plugin.
automate up to 128 parameters per instance

control up to 128 parameters
control 128 parameters per plugin
32 endless encoders
4 pages
map the same parameters on multiple pages

customization / personalization
customize look
- set background colors per encoder and group encoders to match the groups of the hosted plugin
- load background image per page by drag and drop

multiple plugins
- host up to 12 plugins per instance
- create multi host chain presets of instruments and audio effects
- power plugins on/off
- bypass plugins
- solo plugins

does not affect your DAW's performance
but it increases your workflow dramatically

the MP Host is a VST3 AU AAX plugin itself and it can load up third party VST2 VST3 AU 64 bit plugins

it uses almost zero CPU and does not consume additional resources

high quality build
- high quality endless encoders
- sturdy metal enclosure
- does not require external power adapter
