Velocity Curve Parameters

Curve display

In the Curve display section to the left, you can use one of ten preconfigured curve types, or create a custom curve. To select a curve type, click on one of the buttons to the right of the curve display.

Custom curve

To set up your own curve, select the Custom preset.

  • To insert a node, double-click in the editor.

  • To delete a node, double-click it.

  • To adjust the shape of the curve, drag the nodes.

  • To change the curvature, drag the lines between the nodes up or down.

Min/Max

With the minimum and maximum values, you can specify the output velocity. The curve is compressed accordingly.

Controller Mode

This parameter allows you to control the effect of the curve dynamically.

  • If this is set to Off, the curve is applied at 100 %. The side-chain controller cannot be used.

  • In Switched mode, the velocity curve is only applied if the side-chain controller sends a value higher than 64. This allows you to use a foot switch to activate or deactivate the influence of the velocity curve, for example.

  • In Continuous mode, the incoming side-chain controller value is used to scale the influence of the velocity curve. If this is 0, the curve has no effect, if this is set to 127, the curve is applied at 100 %.

  • In Replace mode, you can use the side-chain controller as a source for the input velocity. In this case, the originally played velocity is ignored.

Side-Chain Controller

Specifies which MIDI Controller is used to control the effect of the velocity curve.
