The Velocity Curve allows you to refine and scale the MIDI velocity information coming from your controller as it enters Trilian to get the best response for your playing style.
Trilian has four velocity curve presets available on the Main Page. The first curve is linear, the second and third are exponential curves and the fourth is flat. These preset curves are provided to quickly adjust the dynamic response of the current Patch to your MIDI controller and playing style.
Linear
The linear curve is the most commonly used velocity setting. Playing harder on the keyboard will have a direct effect on any parameter that is modulated with velocity in an even and linear way.
Exponential Positive
The Exponential Positive curve means that when playing softly not much effect will be heard, but when playing at a moderate intensity on the keyboard the velocity modulation will be more dramatic than with a linear curve.
Exponential Negative
Exponential Negative has the opposite effect of Exponential positive, meaning that it’s better-suited for a more intense touch and provides the widest musical dynamic range.
Flat
Trilian will receive the same velocity value with this flat curve. Useful if a totally consistent and predictable result is desired.
