TrancitParticipantIs there any setting, where you can define the default velocity for new inserted notes…here it´s 64, which for me is a little to low…100 would be fine…

ZynewaveKeymasterThere is no setting, but if you add new notes with the pencil tool, it will use the velocity of the previously selected event.
I can easily change the default velocity for new notes to 100, but is a “default note-on velocity” setting in the piano roll properties dialog preferrable? Anyone else have different preferences to default velocity?

LiquidProj3ctParticipantI don’t think that default velocity need a preference, I like 100 too. In all hosts is around 100 and it’s fine with everyone 🙂

siegfriedParticipantPossibility to set default velocity is great idea in my opinion. 64 is often too low.

Would you be happy with a default velocity of 100?

I’d like an option to set a default, but failing that a default of 100 would be preferable.

100 is good IMHO. But maximum value is maybe better… (many instruments are not velocity sensitive) But 100 is definitely better than 64 in my opinion. Thank you very much.

TrancitParticipantNo need for a seperate setting here…if you would change it to 100 8)

AngelicLightParticipantHeck, yeah, it makes a difference.
For those making electronic, synth-based music, there’s nothing that would be noticed.
But for others, like me, who create everything from sample sets, where each velocity is a different texture, or a different drum sound (or hit), this is a make-or-break as far as workflow.
Most sample devs, especially drum sample devs, put their best hits at 127, so it’d be really nice to have a global option to set it to whatever value you’d like.
No offense to those who posted here whose first language isn’t obviously English, but please don’t assume “everyone” loves it this way, or that “all” other hosts do this, because they don’t.
Even Tracktion allows an option to “set all incoming MIDI velocities to full” which is spot-on needed for anyone doing non-electronic music who cares about fast workflow.
Sorry to make this more important than it probably seems, but when your output quantity means you’re making more money, little things like this mean a lot.
Thanks for listening,
