Idea too improve step sequencer flam!

I like the idea of a flam in the step sequencer but it is a little flawed as is. The second part of the flam strikes at the same velocity as the first. The help file describes a flam as "a quiet “grace” note that is added to the beginning of a louder “primary” note, resulting in a fuller sounding note when played almost simultaneously". In the step sequencer you adjust the flam's timing but not the velocity.

Here is picture of a live hi hat flam ( the red indicates the softer note added)


Here is a flam in the step sequencer and bounced to piano roll ( no decay)


This lack of decay makes the flam sound unnatural.

Here is what I propose, a velocity control for the flam note. This is to adjust how hard or soft the flam note strikes.

It might look something like this in the step sequencer and bounced to piano roll.



Here are two audio examples of the above illustrations. The one with extra velocity control should sound more natural. Tell me what you think.
