There are a bunch of Kawai curves in the keyboard curves area. I'd try either the MP8 or MP9500 as the MP line is usually the stage version of the CA line.

Another Kawai model the VPC1 (a controller) have some velocity curves for famous pano softwares.

Not sure if the curve for this Kawai VPC1 work as good in your Kawai CA 63, but anyway here it is:

Let's hope al Kawai digital pianos/controllers in recent years follow the same sensibility/curves for keybaod velocity.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I agree with you. Kawai digital pianos are really good. But that's why I'm so disappointed trying to use Pianoteq. I cannot get a reasonable feeling when playing. Do you have any velocity curves or options to share with me?

Thanks,

Christophe

Kawai it's a hi quality manufacturer of digital pianos. The CA 63 should work as a good midi controller for pianoteq. Kawai sensor should be able to transmite 127 velocity (despite the sound core of Kawai hane not even near 127 velocities per key) and make pianoteq work fine.

Hi,

Do you have any experience with Kawai CA63 and Pianoteq 4.x?

I've never managed to obtain a good key-sound response. What I mean is that it seems the limitation on the number of velocity levels (127) through midi prevents any good playing experience.

Listening to Pianoteq examples, I'm always impressed by the sound quality but using it with Kawai CA63 (which has a quite good key action) is really disappointing since the feeling is very bad.

I've tried to change the velocity curves but no way to obtain something realistic.
