I'm not sure where I'd make it so that when I hit a key I'm getting the full velocity notes. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I don't see anything on the MIDI track and Zeta+ is... um, there's lots of knobs. :-/

On my padKontrol I can just press the fixed velocity button to do this but I'm not quite sure how/if I can with my M-Audio Oxygen 25. I'd rather just do it in Sonar though. 

Cheers.

Really hammer they keys when you are playing it. Lol. I have trouble getting anything below the full velocity.

You can change the velocity settings in most synths similar to the way you would map cutoff to a mod wheel for example. This is usually in the modulation properties and velocity is usually defaulted to volume in the amp section.

I don't know whether the sonar midi plugin still comes bundled with x2, I am not at home at the mo to check, but I remember velocity mapping with that in 8.5 to a certain degree of success.

hmm... I think I'd better just figure out how to do this with the controller. Yay... more manuals! :-/

Just record it naturally and change them all to 127 after you've finished?

That's what I'd do Beep.

Heh. That's kind of the opposite of what I want to do. I was gonna record at full velocity then tweak the notes down after. Oh well. I found a reasonable setting in Zeta to work with that doesn't have a bunch of weird velocity sensitive noises wrapped around the tones. 

Funnily enough... it's the Alembic Bass preset. lol! WATCH OUT BAPU!!
