Topic: Roland KR7

Perhaps strangely, I found that this keyboard is linear from zero to 127.

Finding it difficult to actually play a velocity at a given value, I set up a midi file with known velocities.  It starts with three notes on D3 (A440) with velocity = 127, followed by three notes on D3 with velocity = 1, then three notes on D3 with velocity = 12, 13, 12 etc. (MIDI only permits integer values - 12 / 13 / 12 is a compromise).

The first three notes at 127, set up the tempo, so one knows when to expect the next three with velocity = 1.

I will post this midi file "Velocity curve test file" is anyone wants to use it.

Re: Roland KR7

Should add that the KR7 is a "cabinet" DP.  I previously had a KR107, and I suspect it is also linear.

And I suspect that the other Rolands (HP107, HP207, HP307 for example) would also be.

Re: Roland KR7

I agree with Glenn on the linear velocity. I just made a few tweaks to mellow it down a bit.

Velocity = [0, 24, 62, 101, 127; 0, 22, 60, 95, 127]
