Velocity Map
The Velocity Map determines the way the PC3 generates MIDI velocity information. Different
maps generate different velocity values for the same attack velocity.
If you change the setting of the Velocity Map parameter, remember that it also has an effect on
the transmit velocity map (which is on the MIDI mode TRANSMIT page).
Pressure Map
The Pressure Map determines the way the PC3 generates MIDI pressure information. Different
maps generate different pressure values for the same physical pressure applied to a key.
If you change the setting of the Pressure Map parameter, remember that it also has an effect on
the transmit pressure map (which is on the MIDI mode TRANSMIT page).
Intonation
Most modern western music uses what is known as equal temperament. This means that the
interval between each semitone of the 12-tone octave is precisely the same as every other
semitone. Many different intonation intervals have evolved over the centuries, however, and the
PC3 supplies you with 17 different intonation “tables” to choose from. By changing the value for
this parameter, you select from among the intonation tables stored in the PC3’s memory. Each of
these tables defines different intervals between each of the semitones in a single octave.
