#Fl studio keys sticking keyboard software#
If the velocities are not what you expect coming from the keyboard, then your options are to reprogram the keyboard if possible, change your keyboard technique so that the key strike is more consistent, or edit the velocity after it has been recorded in the DAW, or filter the input velocity using the DAW or other software (which is in practice the same as editing the velocity).

To check what your keyboard is actually sending you can download MIDIOx which will tell you without involving the DAW settings. If your keyboard does, then look for the method to re-program that if the problem is that the velocity being sent is consistently wrong. My MIDI keyboard, like many others, has the capacity to be programmed to send different velocity messages as a response to the same strike force on the keys. Velocity need not control volume at all, depending on the programming of the device. Velocity is a MIDI term of art describing a number which the receiving device or software will interpret in whatever way it is programmed to respond to that number. If you are using a meter calibrated in dBspl you are measuring loudness.
Volume is the mechanical power of the sound or sound pressure level. If you are judging the sound by ear, you are measuring loudness. I involves a variety of factors including pitch, timbre, recently heard sounds, simultaneously heard sounds (masking) etc. Loudness is a psychoacoustic term that describes the subjective response of the listener. What you should expect is that the keyboard will always send the same velocity from a given key strike force for the same key. There is no reason to think that the keyboard will send the same velocity with each key strike-they are designed to not to do that so that different key strike forces produce different velocity levels making it possible for the player to control that parameter with technique. It sound as if you are describing an inconsistency of the velocity sent by the keyboard, but you are not specifically addressing velocity as the issue, and only describe the symptom in terms of loudness. I use midi keyboard, and the certain notes are just louder than others.
Also, I am not sure that you can use the plug-in by itself to adjust for different levels across your keyboard in real time (if that's what you need). That's why I referenced the Help file. If I turn the plug-in off, I hear the notes as played (softer and louder notes).Ĭlarification: Based on the following, I don't think the settings I used is the ideal solution you want. With the plug-in on, all notes sound at the same level to my ears. However, the MIDI track is as I played it (with low and high velocities). Since I recorded the audio through the Velocity MFX Plug-in, the loudness has been corrected based on the settings. If necessary (based on what you want to do), you might need to tweak the settings per the help file if the plug-in meets your needs. (See image.) Low velocities and high velocities sounded very close to my ears. I split the Instrument Track into its MIDI and audio components, put the Velocity MFX on the MIDI track (in the track's FX bin), and recorded both midi and audio with the settings that were there.
I just ran a quick test of the Cakewalk Velocity MFX with TTS-1 just to make sure it affects volume. Or, if you have a third-party tool that can filter a file list, search for vel*.chm.Īnother thread that might have useful info: Turn off Velocity Sensitivity. Of course there are many other things you can do with Cakewalk FX Velocity, but I'll leave you to explorer those.į1 should bring up the *.chm file, though it might pop up behind another window. All notes sounded will be that value - regardless of actual velocity played. With this you can set the resultant velocity to any value. I believe you might get what you are asking by inserting an Cakewalk FX Velocity in the Effects Rack of the MIDI track that your midi keyboard is triggering. So my question is: can I do the same with Cakewalk as I did with Fl? Or even better, can I make my keys sound with the same volume but with the keeping of the function"when I press harder it's louder"? I also had this problem with FL Studio but there I found the velocity adjustor, and I adjusted it horizontally (initially it was diagonally), so that my keys would sound with the same volume, but the volume wouldn't change no matter how hard I pressed. My keys are totally fine (cause for example when I use PianoMarvel the velocity works perfectly ).
