VELOCITY

[GRV VELOCITY]

Range:

-100

to

+100

Default:

+000

Works on: Sample tracks

This function applies an offset to the velocity values of the notes (or slices) that start
within the groove intervals. (The velocity determines the loudness at which the note
is reproduced.) Turn the knob to the right to increase the velocity, or left to decrease
it. Although possible offsets range from

-100

to

+100

, be aware that the applied veloc-

ity can never be raised above 127 (maximum loudness) or reduced below 0 (no
sound).

NOTE:

The term velocity refers to the force with which a note is played, and therefore corre-
sponds with loudness. Velocity is a standard MIDI parameter, and can take values from
0 to 127. You can edit velocity values directly (on COMPOSED LOOP and FREE tracks
only) using the EVENT EDIT | LOCATION & VALUE job (

p.246).

You cannot set this value on LOOP tracks on which BPM TRACKING is set to CHNG
PITCH
.

GRV VELOCITY = +000

GRV VELOCITY = +050

Velocity is adjusted.
