KJJO Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Hey guys, I really hope you can help me. So I want to play other notes on my midi, which only has 15 keys. I can basically only play C2 up to C3. That's how it's set from the beginning. How can I play the rest of my piano roll on my small midi keyboard ie how can I put notes that are further down on my midi?

David Nahmani Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 What keyboard manufacturer and model is that? Most keyboards have keys that allow you to transpose the keys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

des99 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 They are realtime MIDI region parameters. The original notes are recorded, and those parameters get "imprinted" onto the data as it plays back in realtime. There is a simple command to burn in those settings onto the actual MIDI data if that is what you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you do if the performance to be recorded is spanning over more than the 2 octaves of the OP’s keyboard range?

The OP only has two octaves, so they are not able to perform 3+ octave performances. However, they ca easily transpose those two octaves up and down where it most makes sense for the sound they are playing (eg, transpose down 2 octaves for a bass part, and record that, for example). This is what we are recommending using MIDI defaults/region parameters for, transposing the two octaves to the desired range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas007 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) Thanx @des99 for your patience. Considering that one would sometimes prefer more freedom when inspiration arises, I am submitting here my Environment suggestion for those using a limited range MIDI device to perform with. Hoping that same will be useful to someone... Transposition Environment for LPH.zip Edited August 15, 2022 by Atlas007 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicely documented and nice interface, easy to use and with the possibility to create octave +/- remote buttons on your controller. 😀 Could you also upload it in the Environment forum? That way it won't get lost in the Shuffle. Thanks! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
