If you don't need to be super-specific about your velocity values, this is a fine way to change them, as you can hear the new velocity, and if the value is 87, instead of a round 90, you probably don't care and it probably doesn't affect the underlying VSTi much!Ģ. In reality, the curve of the velocities is skewed on both ends, so if you want to be at maximum velocity, clicking anywhere after the note names on the keys will get you to 127! The colors you see corresponds to REAPER's color scheme for note velocity, but are overall a rough estimate. Instead of calling this the default, I'm gonna refer to this from now on as the "Central Value". It simply sets the new value for all notes that you will insert, until you change it. The velocity value is not tied to the note on any of the keys you are playing. The closer you are to the left of the keys, the new velocity value will be lower (notes will be played softer) and the closer you are to the right of the keys, the new velocity will be higher (notes will be played harder). However, this also sets the velocity for new notes. Clicking its keys there will play you the sound associated with that note. MIDI Piano Roll: In your MIDI Editor window on the left, you see a keyboard. So the key to understanding why it randomly changes, is to learn how it changes, and there are a few ways:ġ. This hapens when you select a note of any other velocity, which then sets that value as the new "default". Notes would've continued to be 127 forever, but you may have noticed that value changing later. This may sound confusing so let me elaborate: The first time you ever opened REAPER's MIDI Editor, your velocity would have been something like 127. ![]() Arguably though, what REAPER has is a lot more useful & fluid than that! MIDI Notes that you insert using your mouse, by clicking, double clicking, dragging to draw, or painting (or any other method using a mouse, all of which I've covered in this video in detail) will simply take on the Velocity of the last selected note. I put default in quotes because, if we're being nitpicky, there's no such thing as a "default" MIDI velocity value in REAPER, ie something which you could maybe change in the preferences. ![]() Setting a "default" velocity value for Notes? Of course, we can do this afterwards, and I've covered that in detail before, but today I want to show you some of those actions in more detail, focusing on the ones that are useful for editing MIDI Velocity on the fly! It's been a while since we've done a MIDI related video, but in this episode we’re taking a deep dive into editing MIDI Velocity! When you perform MIDI Parts, Velocity comes naturally, and of course we can use MIDI JSFX to control it further, but while we edit using a mouse, it becomes a separate set of operations to edit Velocity.
