How to use velocity zones in a rack

Post by Rxkimo » Mon Aug 29, 2011 6:01 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a very basic velocity zone but can't seem to get it to work.

Based on the input of a midi note what I'd like to do is:
1) I'd like to have notes with velocity 0 to 99 have their pitch decreased
2) I'd like to have notes with velocity 100 to 127 have their pitch increased

So what I did was use an effect rack with Chain A (0 to 99) set to have velocities 0 to 99 and a pitch decrease. And Chain B (100 to 127) to have velocities 100 to 127.

The problem is that if I make a midi input clip with velocity = 99, I don't hear anything. If I make clips for velocity = 100 I do hear notes.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

that's an odd one. works as expected here - all note are recorded, so no idea really.

maybe it's another of Live's impossible-to-pin-down-or-recreate glitches that requires a restart for all to be well again.

latest version of Live?

Thanks for trying to recreate.

It's really odd, cause if I change the range to be 1 to 100, it works, but 1 to 99 doesn't. It's like there's something special about "99".

This works:

And this doesn't work:
