Pad Sensitivity
Pad Sensitivity
ahoi pushers,
i've got my push yesterday (just before easter vacation, lucky me)
first thing i recognized was, that i have to hit the pads very hard,
its almost impossible for me to play melodies with some instruments.
is there a way to set the sensitivity of the pads? i mean, when i stand
right before the push, its very easy to play but when i sit i have to
hit the pads to hard.

change -> Velocity Curve
or -> Pad Threshold
i put my Pad Threshold to minus - 10

Re: Pad Sensitivity
by the way, when holding down the User button, i've noticed that knob 5 seems to switch between "Scene Workflow" and "Clip Workflow" settings.
does anyone have any idea what this does?

Re: Pad Sensitivity
Yoda, the manual says nothing about that. May we use the force?

Download the updated manual from the ableton site.
The one that the live menu gives you is out of date!

I can't find any place on the ableton site to download the latest manual, and I'm running 9.0.2 which is the latest version AFAIK.
My manual mos def has nothing about Clip Workflow etc.

You're a wizard, Harry. I spent about 10-15 minutes searching on google and never came up with that link. But yes, this is the right one.BobTheDog wrote:5 seconds with google got me this!psychicfriend wrote:???BobTheDog wrote:Download the updated manual from the ableton site.

Re: Pad Sensitivity
for me its impossible to play fluently on the pads. like on a standard midi keyboard. i try all seetings. i cant find the perfect settings between "hit real hard to get loud" and "too sensitive and too big accent jumps"
dont know if i'll get ever family with those "hard" pads …

I use the Velocity in MIDI FX's
set the in and out = 0-127
It's pretty good
see if that'll give you better pad play.
Hope this helps

Re: Pad Sensitivity
Sorry they're called the out high and the out low
For example: if you set the both to 115 no matter how hard or soft you hit the pad it'll be 115.
