{"title":"Expressive E","description":"\u003cp\u003eExpressive E is a French company focused on expressive controllers and instruments. Its best-known product is the Osmose, a keyboard whose keys respond not only to velocity but also to how deep you press and to sideways movement. That lets you play vibrato, pitch bends and timbre changes per note.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt VDS instrumenten you will find the Osmose in two sizes, with 49 or 61 keys. The full Osmose is a polyphonic synthesizer with the EaganMatrix sound engine, developed with Haken Audio. The Osmose CE versions are MPE MIDI controllers with the same expressive keys and Ctrl-e software, designed to drive your own software instruments and plug-ins. Buying an Expressive E Osmose is interesting for keyboard players and sound designers looking for more expression than a regular keyboard offers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese keys need to be felt.

Each of the 61 keys responds individually to movement, pressure, and touch, allowing you to add per-note pitch bends, vibrato, pressure, and other nuances. You play software instruments naturally with gestures such as tapping, pressing, pitch bend, vibrato, shaking, strumming, and expressive note-off. This makes playing feel more direct and lively than with a standard keyboard. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe included Ctrl-e software provides access to an extensive sound library with over 900 MPE-optimized presets that are ready to use.

The Osmose 61 CE features an MPE arpeggiator, Press Glide, seven encoders, nine buttons, a 4.3-inch color display, and pitch and modulation faders.
