Would be great if Moddart listened to this issue which - I guess more people are having as well - and created a kind of integrated tool or function to fix it.

Thanks to all and good night

EDIT: Apossibe solution could be a "two steps velocity curve", one velocity curve which is the assigned to the controller (assuming a 45º straight velocity on the patch) and the other curve which is the assigned to the instrument patch (initially assigned by Moddart, but maybe eventually also editable by user?), the resulting curve should be the automatic addition of both.. ahhh how beautiful is daydreaming

A bit annoying to have to edit out the prefix "Velocity =" but that's nothing really.

OK, I fixed it.

The output is not "sum" of curves as EvilDragon called it. Actually, if first curve represents map f, second map g, then output curve is a representation of the composition map f∘g.

It's maybe buggy, I'm not a programmer. I also don't have my own site, so I just googled the first free hosting for debugging JS and posted my code there. I'm not sure about how long the link will be active. I guess always.

I saw your reference to this thread over here: http://www.forum-pianoteq.com/viewtopic.php?id=3740

I don't think Pianoteq responded to this request and in the interim have thought about using something like MIDI Shape Shifter. I have played with it a bit and it definitely takes some overhead but it allows you to take incoming MIDI information coming into your DAW and then have that go to a virtual MIDI port or device which you would then send to PianoTeq. The benefit of that program of course is that my other plugins such as Lounge Lizard get the benefit of having custom velocity settings. You may also want to have a look at it. Here is a link:

I don't think it will work if you want to run Pianoteq in standalone mode so you would need to run it from inside a DAW.

I changed to VPC-1, and it can remember its own curves. That does the trick. Also, to have most of the adaptation in side your keyboard, has the advantage, that Midi files from internet play without the - in this case unwanted - keyboard velocity adaptations.

That's why you see curves in presets, where of course the idea is that the keyboard playing it has a perfect linear response.

What you ask is perfectly legitimate, and I would favor adding such a simple curve addition tool to the Velocity Curve Section in the forum. This way, you could produce the finished curves you want and store them in a mini-preset.

certain presets come with their own velocity curves, which deviate from the linear response in certain ways.
Is there a way to apply those deviations not to a linear curve but to my custom one? Let's say, for example, that the preset curve has a value of 70 at velocity 64, with a deviation of 6 from the linear response. My custom curve has a value at vel 64 of 60, can I apply that deviation to my curve so to get, at vel 64, a value of 66? And so on for every point of the curve...
But maybe I'm misunderstanding...
Anyway I don't think that that's possible
