I think someone was talking about MIDI keyboards that have Poly after aftertouch.
Is there such a keyboard?
Novation told me that remote 25 etc are Mono.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

You also need a sound generator that is compatible with poly aftertouch. Hardly anything does that.

I have used it for years and has its pluses as well as its minuses.

Doesn't Poly aftertouch mean that each note will have own aftertouch sensitivity?
Would software samplers benefit from this.

Think Ensoniq is polytimbral not poly aftertouch

The Ensoniq does have poly aftertouch. I have an acoustic guitar patch that works well with poly aftertouch. You can 'strum' a chord and just give some vibrato to a single note without affecting the other. Don't use it much though.
