I like to record in as many ways as possible - there's no logical explanation - I simply love to record parts of things because it allows me to think in a multidimensional fashion.

Still don't think I understand the benefit but no point digging further - anything that makes it easier is great to haveįor me, recording music is fun. What's the advantage to this over recording with the velocity you want when you record the notes themselves? But it would even be nice for piano, although I'm not sure how it would follow chords. I can easily get ham fisted and play harder then I like, many times with out real feeling, especially drums.

I agree and think that wood be a great tool. That really does sound cool Breeder, so you can set it up in a step mode and it follows the notes regardless whether they are a quarter note, 8th note, 16th note, etc.? REAPER is more robotic when it comes to MIDI editing - it lacks entries into it via MIDI keyboard, it lacks recording capabilities for MIDI editing. You could learn Cubase's MIDI editor in a day. However, Cubase has these small things that can breathe life into music and they are all nicely intertwined functionaly wise. It's actually quite poor in number of functions compared to REAPER - REAPER's MIDI editor, once set up properly, is the most powerful MIDI editor I have ever used. It's awesome for humanization in general.Ĭubase has a good design of MIDI editor when it comes to distribution of functions. No need to draw complex CC curves by mouse, fight with feder lenght if you're automating it etc.it's the old fashion way - knocking those notes in, lol. Then just step record through it pressing one key on your keyboard and effectively record velocity for it in a human way (as opposed to using humanize and randomize function). It means you can record velocities to the existing notes (and hear them with the new velocity as you do it).įor example, let's say you have a nice minimalist piano - copy paste it one billion times to use as a background. Hi Breeder, do you mean you can replace the velocities of the notes that are there, or do you mean you can record the notes along with their velocities?
