Isn't there a full-velocity pad curve?

ps.  it makes me kinda sad not to know these things off the top of my head these

That's interesting, Aaron.  So what would you suggest to "intentionally" lose 
velocity sensitivity if one wanted to?
And what are your thoughts about why one has to really hammer the pads to get a 
full 127 sometimes?
