When recording a midi track in ProAudio 9, the velocity of every note, regardless of the patch or track, will register as 80. Eighties across the board! I must have inadverantly changed some parameter somewhere but I can't figure out what to undo. Any clues? Thanks
 
check ur MIDI settings for key sensitivity, like go into , now this is correct, i think. it's in projects< project, or global and check key senstivity, and rerecord, i thinks u should be set, but that is the parameter u r looking 4. power to the PA9 people!!
 
Check your keyboard, maybe you misconfig it somewhere. What keyboard anyway?

I have a Yamaha PSR 225. Sometimes the velocity records normally for awhile, but then I'll open up an old cakewalk file and I'm back to the 80 velocity problem even if I open up and record a new cakewalk file. But then I might open up another old file and velocity records normal again. What the heck... :confused:

Thanks

Thanks, I gave them a look. A "key sensitivity" box didn't jump out at me. I'll have to figure out what all those checked and unchecked boxes are about lest I screw things up big time. :o
 
good point, i kind of installed that every time i was forced to reboot my CPU and never tried it w/out the update.
 
Just a thought, do your old MIDI files contain system exclusive message? Sometime it's sent automaticaly to your synth whenever you open the file

that's what i was thinking too. if your sysex is set to go automatically without notifying you, it could be resetting your keyboard... having said that, if you had set up sysex messages on file open, you would remember, because you would have had to go through the trouble of figuring out checksums and crap like that.

i said all that to say, check your cakewalk settings, and then check your keyboard settings.
 
Thanks. I haven't looked at the keyboard settings since I first plugged it in. In the past, when I had opened some old cakewalk file, the correct settings apparently came along for the ride and the problem seemingly fixed itself. In the meantime I have become a wiz at Cakewalk's "changing", "scaling" and "randomizing" velocity midi commands.

That's another area I have yet to explore. Thanks I'll try that one.

Sean..that was it! A lousy keyboard setting. Touch sensitive = off. :rolleyes: Thanks
