VELO MIDI Note Velocity
This menu controls the MIDI velocity of the notes output by Arpie. There are two
velocity modes, described as follows:
•
Fixed velocity mode allows you to override the velocity of all arpeggiated
notes or to mute them completely. You can select one of 15 different velocity
levels that are applied to all notes. The original velocity information from the
MIDI input (e.g. keyboard) is ignored.
•
original velocity mode plays each arpeggiated note using the velocity as it
was played on the controller keyboard. To switch to this mode, press the first
data button (mute) twice. To switch back to selected velocity mode, press any
velocity button, including zero. This mode can be identified by the left and
right-most LEDs being on and all the others off.
*VELO MIDI Accent Velocity
Long press the VELO button to set the MIDI velocity for accented notes. Accented
notes can be played at a higher, identical or lower velocity than other notes, or they
can be muted.
This function works just like the normal VELO setting except that LEDs are lit from
the right end rather than left to make it easy to visually tell which velocity you are
setting.
