Can't get Akai samples to play at volumes relative to MIDI velocity

Hi, I'm just trialing the TX16Wx and although it reads, samples and programs very well from my Akai iso files, it seems to play every note at full or high volume/velocity. If I load just an ordinary wav file sample the velocity responds as expected. Is there a way to compensate for this lack of dynamic range in Akai samples? Am I doing something wrong? I'm using an external midi keyboard and Cubase.

Sample != Program. That being said, most AKAI cd:s I've seen have velocity dialed down quite a bit. Typically to 20 (of range -50:50) -> 40% velocity. Afaik, this is a linear number.
That also being said, I just found a little bug that treats this value wrongly, as a volume designator (0:100) -> to low velocity. Will be fixed in next release.
Meanwhile, if you are unsatisfied with velocity sensitivity of the instrument once loaded, just adjust it in the sound parameters.

Hi have you tried to select all you samples or group and go to AEG/Main to put the velocity to full or 1?
