Defining the Velocity Crossfade Range
The Fade fields define the velocity crossfade range for the currently selected
layer. The first Fade field defines the Fade In range for the low velocity
value. The second defines the Fade Out range for the high velocity value.
With soft playing, Layer 1 sounds. As you play harder, Layer 1 gradually fades out and
Layer 2 fades in. When the keyboard is played hard, Layer 3 plays.
To Set Up a Velocity Crossfade Between Layers
Set the velocity fades so that layer 1 fades out with higher key velocity,
while layer 2 fades in. At a velocity of 64, the two sounds are equal volume.
You may want to adjust the fade in and fade out points to achieve a natural
sounding crossfade. These parameters vary depending on the sounds.
