11.5 Handling MIDI Velocity
The velocity of notes triggered by steps is set by default in the MIDI
instrument parameter page. This ranges from 0-127. An FX1 or FX2, ‘V’
Step effect can also be applied which will dene the velocity specically for
the step. External gear will receive the note message with the dened
velocity transmitted.
Recording of note data can be performed from external gear into Tracker+
in Live Recording mode using [Rec] + [Play]. To be able to record velocity,
the Cong > General > ‘Recording Options’ would need a velocity option to
be set i.e. 3 or 4 from the lost below. The options are:-
1. Only Notes: Records only quantized notes into a pattern.
2. Microtiming: Records notes with microtiming into a pattern.
3. Velocity: Records quantized notes and velocity into a pattern.
4. Microtiming + Velocity: Records notes with microtiming and velocity
into a pattern.
Note D2 recorded for instrument 8 at a recorded
velocity of 47. Note Step FX Velocity range is 0-100.
Recording options set to ‘Velocity’
Note E1 recorded for instrument 8 at a recorded
velocity of 100. Note Step FX Velocity range is 0-100.
Recording options set to ‘Velocity’

Sends Note C5 across MIDI Channel 2 at the
default velocity in the MIDI Instrument parameters
Sends Note C5 across MIDI Channel 2 at the
velocity value of 23.
The FX value in Tracker+ is based on a range of 0-100, however most devices and DAWs use a
velocity range of 0-127. Bear this in mind when applying and recording FX velocity
