Disklavier

I find the dinner party setting about 30.  Never go below 20.  I like to 
play my own upright DKV at about 60.  Remember, once you reset this velocity 
number using veloset, the "volume" control knob no longer does anything. I 
have had my absolute best results with gnmidi, but veloset is free.
