For info, I have recently bought a SL MK2 73 with the Fatar TP100 action for travel as it is the shortest midi controller with hammer action in the market. This shares the same firmware as the SL MK2 GT . Latest version is 1.1.3 . Key action is excellent & repetition speed top notch .
I have recorded midi output with pianoteq on white and black keys specifically for repeated notes a while ago to check midi values and protocol used for repeated notes.
The post is here https://forum.pianoworld.com/ubbthreads...utput.html
Studiologic is using the same protocol as Kawai for repeated notes , when the key is moving between a zone located about the middle sensor and bottom sensor without reaching the top sensor : The keyboard sends a series of note-on during the repetition sequence and when the key is released, a corresponding series of note-off is sent to clear any residual voice. Velocity of repeated notes-on is calculated based on time travel between middle sensor and bottom sensor.
As you can see on the pictures attached , each repeated note has its own velocity .
It is important to make sure you upgrade the firmware version to the latest version via Numa Player . When I got the brand new keyboard, it was not at the latest version.
PS: just for info , there is no standard midi protocol in midi 1.0 to deal with repeated notes. Each vendor implements its own. Kawai & Studiologic have the same logic . Roland uses a different method and sends a note-off with velocity =0 before re-triggering a new note-on.
