MIDI Note-On Velocity Fix [v1.30+ only]
The stock DX7 keyboard has a restricted range on the maximum MIDI Note-On velocity it
transmits. If you strike a key extremely hard you can get a maximum velocity out of 118 ($76
hex). A hardware fix has been included that allows the player to obtain full MIDI Note-On velocity
of 127 ($7F hex) without fear of damaging the keybed.
The DX7mega128 circuit board has a switch, S1, that allows you to change between default (0)
and full velocity (+3) operation. This switch is not intended to be changed on-the-fly with the
power on, but you can try it for an A:B comparison
if your patches are backed up
.
When the switch is to the right, the setting is +0 (stock). When the switch is to the left, the setting
is +3 (enhanced). Remember, you can verify this setting by doing a F16+32 version
check.
Enjoy your updated DX7!
