We can hope. However, my own experience with Novation (from an attempt to get a feature added to the LaunchPad Pro firmware) is that they tend to be really, really careful with added features in firmware, because their stuff is so popular and well-entrenched that a screwup could hose a lot of folks.John the Savage wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 10:01 pmYa, there's no poly-Y-axis as far as I'm aware. At any rate, here's hoping they just do it. I mean, Novation is one of those players - if they add MPE to the Peak, the rest of the hardware industry will follow, I almost guarantee it.jsterne wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 5:57 pm I emailed them again yesterday. Relatedly, I was at an event with a Peak and quite liked the sound. I wish it has two filters but you can’t have everything. Poly aftertouch seems to work but of course no poly pitch bend and no way for me to test poly Y axis modulation.
Cheers!
So the more obscure the request, the less likely they are to devote time to it. That's why a whole raft of folks have to dive in and say, in reply to the video or directly, "The ROLI demonstration shows that the Peak COULD be the only non-boutique hardware synth that supports MPE right out of the box, and that has a lot of potential, so please consider it. And get a better player to demo it."
(Sorry, had to slip in that last bit.)
