Assigning Envelope Velocity Destinations
You can also assign velocity-controlled Envelope modulation, that is, the modulation
is governed by how hard or soft you strike a key. Proceed as follows:
1. Click in the “Vel Dest” box for one of the envelopes.
A pop-up menu appears in which all possible velocity destinations are shown.
2. Select a destination.
The selected velocity destination is now shown in the list. Beside the destination, a
default value (50) has been set. The value represents the modulation amount. See
below for an example of how velocity modulation works.
You can set positive and negative values by clicking on the value in the list, typing
in a new value and pressing the [Enter] key.
To enter negative values type a minus sign followed by the value.
3. Using the same basic method, you can add any number of velocity destinations for
the Envelope.
They are all listed in the “Vel Dest” box.
To remove a modulation destination click on its name in the list and select “Off”
from the pop-up menu.
Envelope modulation velocity control – an example:
If you follow the steps above and select the Cut parameter as a Velocity destination,
the following happens:
The harder you strike the key, the more the parameter is modulated by the
Envelope.
If you enter a negative value for the velocity modulation amount, the opposite
happens; the harder you play the less the Cut parameter is modulated by the
Envelope.
Event Page
The Event page is opened by clicking the EVENT button at the top of the lower half of
the control panel. This page contains the most common MIDI controllers and their
assignments.
The following controllers are available:
Controller Description
Modulation Wheel The modulation wheel on your keyboard can be used to modulate
parameters.
Velocity Velocity controls parameters according to how hard or soft you play
notes on your keyboard. A common application of velocity is to make
sounds brighter and louder if you strike the key harder.
