Topic: Individual key - Volume

I imagine this'd come in very useful to iron out perceived volume abnormalities, due to either sound reproduction devices, (headphones, speakers, amplifiers) or maybe the actual sound levels of the piano samples, which might be not to one's best liking.
I'm finding one or two notes ring out a tad more than I'd like; and I'm wondering if the facility on Pianoteq Standard would compensate for that.  And whether I could apply this individual "volume editor" across individual pianos.
I would then be able to save each thus-modified instrument.

Anybody who's felt it necessary to do something like this, chip in!  Thanks.

I'm playing all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order

Re: Individual key - Volume

If you’ve nothing more pressing than possibly your adjusting note volumes, maybe download a standard demo, try to make some individual volume readjustments, and save those to presets whether or not you can. 

Whenever you can afford a standard or pro upgrade, you’ll have already gained valuable insights and probably presets in as smooth a transition as possible!

Though, peterws, you may copy and paste whole preset edits (comprising note edits) into the PIANOTEQ NOTE EDIT pane, individual note adjustments (without copy and paste functionality) apply individually to each preset.

No NOTE EDIT Volume checkbox appears in the software Parameter freeze pane.

Thank you.  Sounds good; I'd forgot about the Standard demo d/l.  I shall do just that.
