Subject: Re: [korgpolyex] Re: Two new global parameters

Great question!

To be honest, I lost interest somewhere around the third glass of Cabernet.

This weekend, I'll change it to allow velocity from 1-127 in two step increments so that the global parameter will be from 0-63 for a velocity setting of 1,3,5...127.

How would that be?

Your idea about a volume pedal is well taken and I have been tinkering with the idea for the aTomaHawk kit.

Just curious, but why not a value of 0 to 127? Or does that require
extra code?
I like the idea of controlling a keyboard's volume by using a pedal
that changes note velocity, as opposed to changing MIDI volume (which
is 0-127, btw)
