Expressive E Touche MIDI/CV/USB Expression Controller Standard

Initially it may be hard to understand exactly what Touché is, but that’s because there isn’t anything quite like it. Touché is an ultra-expressive controller that reacts to the smallest pressure, the slightest vibration you apply to it, allowing you to feel and experience music with the sensitivity of touch. Press and slide your hand on the surface to modify the sound of your synths. Soft or hard gestures will influence the intensity of the sound. Percussive or progressive gestures will influence the rhythm of the sound. It’s all powered by the brains of Lié, the companion software that comes along with Touché. It hosts your virtual synthesizer plug-ins, letting you play with included sounds and presets, and also features an intuitive mapping interface for setting up what parameters are modified with each gesture.

There are four shiftings which you can assign one or multiple parameters of your synth to, including top, bottom, left and right, but the real power is the blend between these modes for a world of sound that would be virtually impossible without an extra set of hands or an extensive amount of automation. Touché also comes with built-in MIDI and CV Ports for direct connection with your favorite synths. With the help of Lié, you can save up to 24 different MIDI /CV configurations inside Touché, and get rid of your computer. Colored LEDs then lets you know which configuration is selected when operating in stand-alone mode with your favorite hardware synthesizers. The best way to understand what’s great about Touché is to watch and listen what it’s capable of.
