I’v searched the forum and the manuals, but I still can’t figure this out.
How can I send velocity data with my midi notes to an external midi synth? (In my case a Roland MKS50). If I add values in the volume column, nothing happens.
I just tested with an midi out instrument (nothing attached to it though), and in the midi monitor each note’s velocity seems to be sent (in the “value” field to the very right, with each note).
I am not 100% sure right now, but I believe midi velocities only get sent in conjunction with a note on/off (off often being velocity zero), and that is core definition of the specs? Maybe you were trying to send the vel’s without notes to accompany them? That’s what cc’s, bend, aftertouch etc. are thought for?
Connecting renoise into an externam midi monitor program shows velocities are sent. Maybe you should look into the synth’s docs regarding velocity action?
