Velocity 3D

Velocity 3D applies velocity curves based on input velocity and pitch together. Originally built for improving MIDI piano playback, it helps shape any input containing a wide range of pitches. Use it for keyboards, Push, Arpeggiators and more.

Set the Note Range (High and Low) according to your input MIDI notes, and then draw velocity curves to create the velocity contour. For instance, in the example below, 9 octaves of note A (A-2 to A6) with uniform, increasing velocity are played through Velocity 3D. On the right hand side you can see that the output velocities now diverge in different curves. Notes which were higher or lower than the Note Range (A-1 to A5 in the picture) use the closest boundary’s curve.

The velocity curve is morphed across all the input octaves. Note that the clip displays are illustrative only: the transformations happen in real time.

In Gain mode, the Velocity curves specify how much to Add or Subtract from the incoming value.

You can apply positive or negative gain curves to velocity rather than mapping curves.

The sleek 3D view lets you rapidly edit and visualize the contours. The 2D views allow more editing precision.

Every control is well labeled and has appropriate Info View text.
