MPS, short for Musical Parameter Synthesizer, is a software synthesizer plugin designed for both Microsoft Windows and Apple macOS platforms. It supports multiple plugin formats including VST2, VST3, CLAP, AAX, and AU, ensuring broad compatibility across different digital audio workstations. The synthesizer is developed in native C++ code, which results in high performance and efficient CPU usage, allowing for smooth operation even in complex projects.

This synth takes an unconventional approach to sound creation by simplifying the process with a small set of musical parameters that are easy to edit quickly. Its straightforward and resizable user interface helps users focus on creativity without being overwhelmed by technical details. MPS offers 64 voices of polyphony and supports dynamic micro-tuning via MTS-ESP by ODDSound, adding expressive tuning possibilities. Additionally, all parameters can be controlled via MIDI CC with MIDI Learn functionality, providing flexible performance and automation options.

MPS is designed to help musicians and producers create sounds rapidly and intuitively using an accessible parameter set, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced users who want to speed up their workflow. The plugin is the result of a collaboration between Wolfgang Kraus, who contributed the concept and user interface design, and Björn, who handled digital signal processing and patch programming. This combination ensures both creative inspiration and technical excellence in sound design.
