Midi Transform - Range & Crescendo - Am I Crazy?

[xmacvicar]

Ok!

 

I just discovered Midi transform and all its functions tonight. I am using it to great success to make my electronic drum tracks sound a bit more lively - yes! I am going a bit loopy though. See my attached screenshot - I am POSITIVE I set that nice crescendo / range simply using the scale function of the midi transform controls. However - I am not able to replicate it at all.

 

According to forums here; you need to use the crescendo function, and with this, need to specify the range in the midi transform UI. I am absolutely positive I didn't do this because I just learned about it. So that begs the question, how was I able to get this nice flow of notes to build up the way I did? My workflow is to simply select the notes I want to affect, choose Midi Transform and then choose Random Velocity and play with the parameters; mostly random velocity between 100-125 depending on the drum hits, or range/scale.

Sorry I don't understand your question...

I gather that you wish to know how to reproduce something you got from random velocity and parameters in the Transform function?

Perhaps, posting a screen capture of the Transform window you used could help to clarify...

I suppose its not really a question. But I can say for sure I was able to get that nice slope of increasing velocity, WITHOUT going through setting positions on the crescendo setting and its driving me nuts that I cannot replicate.

Maybe you used to have the Transform window set to work in Relative Position before? Click the action menu at the bottom left and choose Relative Position.
