Hi Lee
I loaded up the Padmaker midi yesterday and was blown away after a few goes.
What i did was to select an Orchestra sound in Padmaker and the volume of the Instrument was well below the rest of my song.
I did go to the voice section and set about tweaking the volume etc to bring it up to a reasonable level.
I did get the sound nearly where i wanted it but not quite and that was frustrating.
I could obviously reduce everything to compensate but that meant bringing the style down to 60 to 70.
My song has all levels set except the pad .
By recording the pad that I wanted in the Genos sequencer the sound levels were up to standard as the rest of the song level or even louder.
I just put the song into Padmaker Midi and chose the bar length marker and saved to Pad 1 and that was it.
Like you say velocity can make the sound louder or bring how hard or soft you want a particular note.
Just doing what I did made the huge difference in gaining headroom to work with. Also the bonus of having any sound now without restriction.
Hope all is going well Lee.
All the best
John
