Symbolic Sound shared this video demo Kyma 7’s support for the Roger Linn Design LinnStrument, using Multidimensional Polyphonic Expression (MPE) – a way of communicating expressive performance information over MIDI.
Kyma automatically puts the LinnStrument into MPE mode when you connect. Once connected, any keyboard-controlled Sound in Kyma automatically sets the polyphony and responds to the LinnStrument. No extra controllers are needed, and you don’t have to select a special mode on the LinnStrument – it’s literally plug it in and play.
Details on Kyma’s MPE support are available at the Symbolic Sound site.
My jaw is still dropped…
This is like the setup of my wildest dreams, and just when I thought vocoding was overused and couldn’t be relevant again!
