Adjusting all midi notes' volume at once

[djnowhere]

I've been working on a track on the go so I've just been using the MacBook's keyboard for recording midi notes and then drawing some in. Because of this, some notes are at 75% volume and others are 100%. Is there an easy way to change all of the notes to 100% without having to go into each group of midi notes and having to highlight them and then change them? Thanks

select all notes
cmd-click-drag upwards on any of them

I think he meant in the velocity pane below the piano roll window for that, right Gary?

So I'd be able to do that for all of the midi notes within a group. But if I have say easily 40-50 different groups of midi notes, is there a way to change all those notes at once rather than having to click on each group and highlight it's notes and change them?

what do you mean by 'groups of midi notes'? separate midi clips?

Yep. Exactly.

then no, there isn't a command to change velocity data of all clips.
but what you CAN do is add a Velocity device (found in the Midi Effects section) to any track with midi clips on it.
Set its mode to Fixed, and Out Hi to whatever volume you'd like (127 max).

Ok cool. I will certainly try that. Thank you very much for the solution. I appreciate it.

Be careful asking about "volume" when you mean velocity.

Volume can be automated easily any number of ways.

Velocity does not always map to volume.

Editing MIDI parameters is sadly not one of Live's strongest points. DAWs like Cubase and Logic that evolved from MIDI sequencers have tools to scale velocity levels easily, Live does not.

To use the Cmd/Ctrl shift-drag on all tracks you will need to expand all groups. Grouped and collected tracks will not be changed
