Transpose
Value range: ±96 semitones. Normal value: 0
All note events contained in the MIDI Region are transposed up or down by the
selected amount during playback. Even complete folders can be instantly transposed in
this way. If several individual MIDI Regions within the folder have already been
transposed, the relative differences between them are retained.
If you want to transpose by octaves, click on the arrows to the right of the Transpose
parameter. This opens a pull-down menu that allows direct octave transpositions.
To guard against drum notes, and so on being transposed, the MIDI Instrument’s
Object Parameter box contains a No Transpose checkbox. If you place a check in this
box, the transpose parameter is ignored in all MIDI Regions played by this Instrument.
Velocity, Dynamics, and Gate Time
Velocity
Value range: ±99. Normal value: 0
All notes in the relevant Region are offset by the selected value. Positive values add to
the originally recorded velocity, and negative ones subtract from it, although naturally
it is impossible to go outside the limits defined by the MIDI Standard (0—127). If you
select a velocity offset that exceeds the maximum or minimum possible value for a
particular note, that note will play at the extreme possible range. As an example, a
setting of +20 will cause a note with a velocity of 120 to play at 127.
Dynamics
Value range: in percent. Normal value: 100%
This parameter also affects the velocity values of notes, but instead of adding or
subtracting a fixed amount, the differences between soft” and “loud” notes (the
dynamics) are increased or decreased. This works in a similar way to a compressor or
expander. Values above 100% expand the dynamics, thereby increasing the difference
between “loud” and “soft”, while values below 100% compress the dynamics, reducing
the differences between “loud” and soft.
The Fix setting causes all notes to be transmitted at a velocity value of 64. When used
in conjunction with the Velocity parameter (see above), it is possible to set any fixed
velocity value.
