Velocity Map (Vel Map) (Master)
Change the Master Velocity Map setting if you find that the PC3LE is not producing the desired
velocities (too loud or too quiet) based on your playing style (how light or heavy that you play
the keys.) 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 Master Velocity Map is an overall control for MIDI velocities used in the PC3LE. MIDI
velocities are values created for each note depending on how hard you strike a key. The Master
Velocity Map affects MIDI velocity values for all MIDI sources and destinations used in the
PC3LE (see the circled box above for its location in the MIDI signal flow.) Different maps used
for the Master Velocity Map generate different MIDI velocity values for the same physical key
strike velocity. Each map applies a different curve to received MIDI attack velocities and remaps
them to new velocities before letting them pass. 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 and after reaching the Master Velocity Map.
The default map, Linear , allows MIDI velocities to pass unchanged. 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 programs. 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
