There are 7 select boxes in the Midi Effect 'Velocity', 6 are circular and the last is square. The two marked 'Change' and 'Gradually' or 'Change Gradually' cannot be selected. I have tried selecting with all the others in case they were a funtion of the others, but nothing I seem to do allows me to choose them. Am I missing something obvious, that's required with these?

According to the plug-in help, the two "Change Gradually" sliders are available only while using the offline version of the plug-in. To run offline, right-click a clip and select the plug-in using the Process Effects > MIDI Effects popup menu option.

Damn, now I'm getting confused with our name similarities. I just saw this was updated, but the last poster was me (having mis-read). Unfortunately I am unable to choose a new name, but would happily do see if I could.
 
Cool thanks, where did you access the help, I couldn't see it. I checked the on-line documentation,and other searches, I couldn't see a help option on the FX, nothing with F12'ing.
 
Ok, apply as an offline Effect require you to have selected the settings you can't select before you apply offline, which I can't select. 
 
This is kind of academic, though as I want for real time. I've modified a Nanopad to get a better responce, but the lowest velocities around 30. I want to reduce this with the Effect by -20 'Change (the one after 'set to')', then make up for the reduced dynamics with the 'Scale' option. SO as you can't select both at the same time, I though one of the 'Change Gradually' would get it. A work around I guess is to run 2 Velocity Effects in series. [Edit: Just realised I could have done the first plug ins job from the Track View 'Vel+' option reducing by 20-30. I thought this was now a percentage option as it shows in the Inspector view]
 
 
 
 

With the plug-in in focus F1 launches the help but for me, the help screen is behind X3 so it needs to be manually brought to the top. Maybe something like MIDICurve or MIDI Shape Shifter may work instead of Velocity.

Damn, facepalming, being my keyboard has 'Help' written on the F1 key, I was sure it used to F12. I had even opened 8.5 to try F12 which of course got me now where.
 
Thanks for the suggestions. I've downloaded the first one, but also PitchBendCurve (as this may suit my Yamaha windcontroller when I get my hand back on it), and also Midi Chords, which is something I added to a request list about 4 or 5 years ago here. So triple thanks.

F1 is a Windows standard for help.

I am currently looking at either locating or creating a CAL script that would allow me to set the velocity of all note events on a given midi track to a value I would input.

Pardon me Bob, but can't you already achieve exactly this with the Event Filter?

A fine question, sir.
 
The issue isn't identifying the notes in question.  For notes that were created within Step Sequencer, clicking on them in Event List does not open them for edit, but rather brings up the Step Sequencer.
 
For MY particular purposes, I just wanted to set all velocity values for an entire MIDI track to be some constant value, that was different from what had been set when the note events were first created, and I also did not want to convert the SS clips to regular clips.
 
So, I whipped up a simple (and stupid) CAL script to do just that, and it works just fine.  If anyone want the script, just send me a PM with an email address, and I will send it to you.

Wouldn't Midi Plug ins> Cakewalk FX> Velocity> 'Set to', achieve this goal?
