Velocity Map (Receive)
Change the receive Velocity Map setting if you are triggering the PC3K with external MIDI gear
which is producing notes that are too loud or too quiet. The default map provides the widest
range of velocity expression, but you may want to choose a different map if the default does not
suit your playing style.
The receive Velocity Map affects the way the PC3K receives MIDI velocity values from its USB
or MIDI In port (see the circled box above for its location in the MIDI signal flow.) Different
maps output different MIDI velocity values for the same received MIDI attack velocity. Each
map applies a different curve to received MIDI attack velocities and remaps them to new
velocities before letting them pass (this parameter has no effect on MIDI data sent from the
PC3K’s keyboard.) The default map provides the widest range of velocity expression, but you
may want to choose a different map if the default does not suit your playing style. See the
diagram above for the other pages that affect the MIDI attack velocity before reaching the
receive Velocity Map.
The default map, Linear, allows MIDI velocities to pass unchanged. Maps Light 1 ‐ 3 make it
increasingly easier to produce high MIDI velocity values for the same key strike velocity (with
Light 3 being the easiest,) so these maps may work better for users who play with a lighter
touch. Hard 1 ‐ 3 make it increasingly harder to produce high MIDI velocity values for the same
key strike velocity (with Hard 3 being the hardest,) so these maps may work better for users
who play with a harder touch. Piano Touch simulates the general velocity response of an
acoustic piano, and is best suited for playing acoustic piano sounds. Easy Touch is similar to the
Light settings, making high velocities easier to play, but it allows more sensitive control over
playing high velocities by not boosting the MIDI velocity for fast strike velocities as much as it
does for medium strike velocities. GM Receive mimics the velocity map commonly used by
keyboards that use the General MIDI (GM) sound set. The GM Receive map makes medium
strike velocities produce higher MIDI velocities compared to the Linear map.
