DAWs and Live Performance tools supporting MPE (wiki)

A DAW does not need to support specificaly MPE as long it has no restriction in recording Midi completely with all Midi channels.

A DAW like Bitwig, which translates Midi to note expressions for its higher resolution, has to specifically deal with MPE which did create difficulties in the past. (fixed now…)
Live failes, as it ignores Midi channels and throws away crucial information…
