Touché lets you make incredible new sounds, using just simple gestures. Its beautifully engineered hardware can translate anything from the softest touch to the roughest rhythms, with pinpoint precision, thanks to Expressive E’s patented mechanism.
- Intuitively tap, push and slide your fingers across the wooden touch-plate to create extraordinary performances in seconds.
- Start playing in minutes, with an amazing library of over 250 professional sounds each designed to take full advantage of the unique power of the hardware.
- Unlock the true expressive power of all your favorite third-party VST instruments, mapping them with just a few clicks or using over 250 ready-made control mappings.
- Use Touché with or without a computer and connect to any software or hardware synthesizer via built-in MIDI and CV connections, USB power, and internal memory. Paired with the extraordinary control possibilities of Touché, your instruments take on a whole new sonic dimension.
- Get up and running in seconds with your hardware synths with over 250 presets and over 80 mapping templates for today’s most successful synths.
Touché is bundled with Lié, its editing software. With Lié you can easily browse the included sound library, host third-party plug-ins, and use presets and templates… Or do it all yourself in just a few clicks, map software parameters to the controller, change MIDI CC and CV voltages, refine control ranges, and save your own presets.
Touché is not shy of reviews
XLR8R
“Touché feels like some sort of unholy combination of an effects pedal, a Kaoss Pad, a mod wheel and a finger board, but the result is somehow incredibly elegant and usable.”
Audiofanzine
“When you’re testing devices throughout the whole year like we do at AudioFanzine… it can happen that you get a product in your hands like Touché, that invited us to reinvent the way we use all our equipment, and perhaps even the way we make music.”
Electronic Musician
“The Touché is so sensitive and responsive that barely grazing its surface or lightly tapping it rhythmically can produce wonderfully nuanced effects.”
Ask Audio
“If you haven’t ever seen anything quite like the Expressive E Touché MIDI Controller before, you’re not alone. Touché is tactile, sensitive, and yet profoundly musical.”
Sound on Sound
“I can’t think of any other hardware controller that offers the intuitive and three-dimensional physical freedom of expression that the Touché and Lié deliver.”
