Re: [CZsynth] CZ-1 maximum key velocity level

2012-08-10 by Lee Borrell

Whilst this may not be of use to you - you can re-scale velocity using MIDI-ox - the program contains a message modifier - that can basically alter any midi message into any other midi message.

If you tell it to respond to velocity 0-96 with 0-127 then that will solve it - problem is you have a PC strapped to your controller. If the idea is to use the CZ as a controller which goes into a software composer/recorder program - MIDI-ox can be YOKED to the program- that is - pre-process the midi info altering 0-96 to 0-127 before it reaches the composer program.

It's a solution,but a software not a hardware one - so not sure if it suits.

Subject: [CZsynth] CZ-1 maximum key velocity level
 

  
Hey guys,

recently my main master keyboard has damaged, so I've temporarily started using CZ-1 to control other synthesizers, as it is my only other keyboard with both velocity and aftertouch control. What I've noticed is that many patches (on other synths) programmed to be expressive with different key velocity sound "different" when played at full velocity. I've connected CZ-1 to DAW, and noticed that no matter how hard I try to struck the keys, the maximum velocity it outputs via MIDI is at 96 level.

I've studied user manual, service manual, tried to find something on the web, but with no luck. 

Is it normal behaviour, that this keyboard has key velocity limited do 96? Any tips appreciated. Thanks!
