Velocity Map (Receive)
Change the receive Velocity Map setting if you are triggering the PC3A with external MIDI gear
which is producing notes that are too loud or too quiet. The default map provides the widest
range of velocity expression, but you may want to choose a dierent map if the default does not
suit your playing style.
The receive Velocity Map aects the way the PC3A receives MIDI velocity values from its USB or
MIDI In port (see the circled box above for its location in the MIDI signal ow.) Dierent maps
output dierent MIDI velocity values for the same received MIDI attack velocity. Each map
applies a dierent curve to received MIDI attack velocities and remaps them to new velocities
before letting them pass (this parameter has no eect on MIDI data sent from the PC3A’s
keyboard.) The default map provides the widest range of velocity expression, but you may want
to choose a dierent map if the default does not suit your playing style. See the diagram above
for the other pages that aect the MIDI attack velocity before reaching the receive Velocity Map.
The default map, Linear, allows MIDI velocities to pass unchanged. Maps Light 1-3 make it
increasingly easier to produce high MIDI velocity values for the same key strike velocity (with
Light 3 being the easiest,) so these maps may work better for users who play with a lighter touch.
Hard 1-3 make it increasingly harder to produce high MIDI velocity values for the same key
strike velocity (with Hard 3 being the hardest,) so these maps may work better for users who play
with a harder touch. Piano Touch simulates the general velocity response of an acoustic piano,
and is best suited for playing acoustic piano sounds. Easy Touch is similar to the Light settings,
making high velocities easier to play, but it allows more sensitive control over playing high
velocities by not boosting the MIDI velocity for fast strike velocities as much as it does for
medium strike velocities. GM Receive mimics the velocity map commonly used by keyboards
that use the General MIDI (GM) sound set. The GM Receive map makes medium strike velocities
produce higher MIDI velocities compared to the Linear map.
