Hi,

Anyone on here using the SL Studio line and care to share your preferred velocity curve? Or perhaps an alternative manufacturer with the Fatar TP/100LR key-bed?

This is my first weighted controller - somewhat surprised at how difficult it is to achieve max velocity from the keyboard direct, even whilst using the on-board 'SOFT' velocity curve. Am I correct in my understanding that it is best to use a linear curve on the unit, and make all adjustments in Pianoteq?

Many thanks!

Yes ... set your keyboard unit for linear velocity, Y=X, or 45° and then use the Pianoteq calibrator.

Lanny

Velocity = [7, 17, 26, 34, 43, 50, 57, 65, 74, 83, 91, 101, 110, 120; 1, 5, 11, 19, 29, 39, 51, 64, 79, 93, 103, 113, 122, 127]

Seems to be quite good, reaching pp and ff with little difficulty...

Edit:

I am finding with the Bechstein DG that the brightness can be a bit too bright, so now settled for this:

Velocity = [7, 17, 26, 34, 43, 51, 59, 68, 75, 83, 91, 101, 110, 120; 1, 5, 11, 19, 29, 40, 51, 64, 79, 93, 103, 113, 122, 127]

Edit 2(hopefully final): a little more tweaking to get an evenness across the models, I think I will settle for this:

Velocity = [7, 17, 26, 34, 44, 53, 62, 70, 78, 88, 96, 104, 112, 120; 6, 10, 16, 24, 32, 42, 54, 66, 78, 90, 104, 112, 120, 127]
