Logic Studio: How To Change Velocity on MIDI Notes

[denicebennafleck]

hi, it does not work when I read the notes...

I could change the velocity as in the video, the note changes color,

but when I play the line, all notes have the same strength...

I have a question I doubt you can help me .. I'm using Logic Platinum ver 5.1 and I made a song using the midi notes, however I want to add more bass to the midi sound. Where's the bass control?? e.g. they have "Fretless bass" as a sound, I just want to increase the bass of it.

@Freeportku001 Hi, thanks for your question. If all you want to do is add more low frequencies to your bass sound you can do two things. First open an EQ plugin on that track and cut the high frequencies, this will bring out the low end without having to boost it too much as it's not competing with the higher frequencies. Second boost the low frequencies a little until you feel the sound your going for. Let us know if this helps.

Is it possible to use the mod wheel or volume controls with the hyper editor and have it enter the velocity with playback of pre-existing midi information?

[Thesunshineflame]

I couldn't get the volume lower on the note I needed. Very annoying :(

[paeturek]

Thanks so much! Very simple and quick tutorial.

@paeturek Hi, glad to hear our tutorial video helped out. Thanks for watching!

Hey guys. I find an easier way is to select the notes you want to change, click the velocity tool and hold the click button down and move up and down. It changes the colour of the note instead. I find it easier :)

@Bostonian91 . Tks...I had seen my buddy do that a million times and it took me forever@#$%?& I couldn't figure it out until now:) Tks!

[Bostonian91]

@myscript haha no problem, glad i could help :)

[Jriver60]

Hey is there a way to change all the velocities to the same number at the same time?

[bedroom58]

is that the quickest way to change velocity? i think it could be. Any one know of any others?

[WinkSound]

@bedroom58 Hi, thanks for getting in touch. Another way of changing MIDI velocity values is by using the Hyper Editor. You find this feature next to the Score Editor tab across the bottom menu, right above the Transport Bar.

[amoyssiadis]

Hi, I used your tutorial to change some velocity on one of my tracks and it worked out great.  The problem I have is I went back onto the screen to change a few more notes and the screen changed into what I can only describe as automation lines rather then velocity notes.....not sure if that makes sense but how do I revert it back to the original view?

Any help would be wicked

Cheers

Hi :-)

I´m using Logic 8 and usually a small toolbar appears, when I press the esc-button, where I can choose amongst several different tools, like Pointertool, Mute, Velocity etc. While using the velocity"arrow" it suddenly dissapeared as an option in this toolbar, which I have happily been using for 2m5 years now, and I cannot seem "to find it". Have anyone had the same problem, and better yet, found a solution?

I would B so grateful for a little assistance on this one!

Thanks!

thanks man

[mklion08]

He looks like so easy a cave man can do it..LOL..Thanks for the info bro

It's called a midi editor buddy. Or technically in logic its the piano roll. Things like that can simply confuse people in a so called tutorial. I know people get the point but in other ways it can mislead people. Your knowledge and effort is still greatly appreciated.
