Changing velocity on midi notes [SOLVED]

[JCcares]

Is it possible to change the velocity on midi notes in the Piano roll editor? The bass drum midi data has been played softly & I need to change it to a tighter sound as if played with more velocity.

[David Nahmani]

Yes, the easiest way is probably to choose the "Velocity tool". You can then select a note or a group of notes, click-hold in the middle of one of the notes, and drag up/down to adjust their velocities.

Eureka.There the velocity tool.Found it.Cant fig out how to delete the question.

Thanks Mr.David.

You're welcome.

NEVER delete your own question! Instead, if you've found your own answer (it seems we both answered your question at the same time), add it to your thread and mark your thread [sOLVED] - that's a much better way to help the community.

 

Glad to hear you figured it out. Happy velocity changing!

I need to 'unsolve' this question now! Well I am able to change the velocity of 1 note using this method,but please tell me how to change the velocity of many notes that are selected.I select a bunch of notes but then when I use the velocity tool they all get unselected.Using Shift key doesn't help.

Any answers?

Do you want to change velocities relative to the original values, or have them be all the same?

[YopoMusic]

If you want to select multiple notes with varying velocities and then adjust the overall velocity of these, try:

 

Within piano roll editor. Click the Hyper Draw icon in bottom left. Select note velocity from the drop down list.

Select your notes in the piano roll grid - you will then see the corresponding velocity tags in the Hyper Draw display turn white. Grab one of these and you should be able to pull the velocities of all up or down.

 

Or select the notes in the grid and work in the Event "List"(top right main screen)

- with your notes selected you should be able to pull the Vs up and down. In the event list look in the value (Val) column for the velocity.

Thanks Yopo.

I want to change it to the original values & not even out all notes.

I did, in my first answer to this thread.

Using Shift is not supposed to help. You change the velocity of multiple selected notes the same way you change the velocity of a single note: select all the desired notes, click-hold one of them with your velocity tool, and drag up/down.
