The specification describes a recommended way of using individual MIDI Channels in MIDI 1.0 and/or MIDI 2.0 to achieve per-note control, enabling richer communication between increasingly expressive MIDI hardware and software.
This sounds like it would provide a mapping for MPE from or for any MIDI version.
Midi Association newsletter :
Hi,
There are some pretty big announcements about MIDI in this newsletter and we hope you enjoy them.
Our first and most important announcement is that after 42 years, The MIDI Association has decided that our non-profit model of providing MIDI for free to everyone is no longer sustainable in an increasingly transactional world.
So starting today, we are moving MIDI to a monthly subscription model.
If you wish to continue to use MIDI, you will need to purchase a monthly MIDI subscription which includes 50,000 Note Ons (with 50,000 Note Offs included at no charge) and 50,000 Control Change messages for the unbelievably low price of $19.99 with a 10% discount for annual subscriptions.
Additional packages of either 10,000 Note Ons/Offs or 10,000 Control Changes messages can be purchased with our convenient MIDI Monthly Overage Packages for $9.99.
Thats yeaterdays news
April 1 happily obliges 
However, if someone wants to make a midi 2.0 controller, even hobby one, there is $240/yr fee.
That was required only for commercial products before.
Mea… Boring. I have already moved on to MDII (Multi Dimensional Instrument Interface)
How does the MIDI Association expect to collect this ?
I can’t help notice the date of these posts
To implement all that MIDI 2.0 and MIDI-CI stuff you must get SysEx ID.
SysEx ID is provided by MIDI Association as part of $240/yr subscription.
Afaik, they’re open non-commercial organisation and report all their expenses, so it’s not whining about money squeezing for nothing.
But that significantly complicates MIDI 2.0 adoption among hobby projects.
And that’s a shame because there is a lot of potential for never seen before devices. I have a couple of ideas myself - don’t know if I would ever go into hardware but there are some spots where MIDI 2.0 would solve a lot of technical blocks (jump over them).
looks French
Geneva, not sure if they have them in Actual France too.
Geneva is as close as it gets to France profonde without being in France
I just realized that the Studiologic SL MK2 keyboard controllers announced at NAMM this year have MIDI 2.0 support. Still not sure what practical difference this makes, but I guess adoption and features can only come if more products come equipped with it.
[Edit: I am wrong]
SysEx ID Only
For smaller developers and startups, there is the choice to purchase a non-voting SysEX ID membership that uniquely identifies your MIDI products and lets you do all sorts of creative things with MIDI including MIDI 2.0.
We understand that starting a MIDI business is challenging and we are here to help and support you.
Unless they’ve changed something, all paid membership options were annual. You can find a lot of five years old whining related to that over the Internet.
Yeah, true. Guess I was too hopeful**- I created an individual account to find
A SysEx ID only membership is a non-voting membership of the MIDI Association. The cost is $240 per year and is automatically renewed unless cancelled prior to renewal date.
** I probably would’ve done something myself if so!
