Great testimonial, Eduard. This looks like a really interesting device. I remember talking about it on the Pro Synth Network livestream, but hadn't seen too much about it since and was glad to see your video.
I want this so badly, actually two, one for mixing and mastering rig at home and a second to to use for live mixing/recording setup, a larger version with a decimal (10,20,30) fader bank underneath with DAW mixer control when the plugin GUI is not open would be an absolut dream, even as an extension unit to traditional digital mixing desks would be a dream function

Thanks for a great video! Could you please also make one showing how this work withe the ableton workflow? I.e. Can you select the MP to constantly show the arp2600 plugin while working on other tracks/plugins in Ableton on your PC? Or will the pc-interface follow what you select on the MP og vice versa?
Thank you for the video. I understand the MP MIDI controller software requires wrapping AU/VST/VST3 plugins in order for the plugins to interface with the control surface via the control surface plugin. If this is anything like the old Novation Automap software, then I assume this will produce alternate wrapped versions of the AU/VST/VST3 plugins. Is this correct? If so, then should I assume to use the original AU/VST/VST3 plugins in my DAW (Cubase 11 Pro) if I were to display them on my standard monitors and not within the MP MIDI controller's monitor? For instance, during a mix I may wish to display a metering plugin on one of my external monitors because I would need to execute little or no adjustments on the meter display. In in this use case, I would have no compelling reason to display the metering plugin on the MP MIDI controller display. My next question is about licensing. The MP MIDI controller web site prices the unit at 360 Euros plus an additional 360 Euros for a license. Do you know if this is a perpetual or subscription license? Also, should I assume a single license allows me to use the MP MIDI controller on any operating system it supports and with any DAW, so long as I run only one instance at a time of the MP MIDI controller software? By comparison, the Slate Digital Raven license requires a separate purchasable license for each DAW within which you want to run the Raven software. I appreciate your feedback.
Why are the encoder visualizations rotated? Is it possible to have them all oriented the same way as the bottom row? Also, it would be nice to have current controller value shown in the middle of the visualization.
Looks nice. Since you have to connect the controller by USB and HDMI your HDMI port will be busy. There is no chance to connect an external monitor if you have only one HDMI port. You could connect an external monitor via TB, but this makes the while thing very expensive.
All is cool but the concept of inserting the MP plugin is not good if you ever have to send a session to somebody that does not have the MP Controller or if you dont have it in a given moment.....
I have an Electra One and though it works great and I haven't touched the more advanced programing (because I don't understand Lua yet), the MP looked like it would be more immediate, with the visual and more knobs available in a single screen. On the Electra One, you have 8 encoders, so that means you have to press more buttons to bring a different page of controls. I would love to hear from someone who has had both!
