Hi folks, I remember seeing an option in Waveform to set a fixed input velocity for a velocity sensitive keyboard, so that no mater what velocity it's outputting Waveform would assign it the fixed value. While it defaulted to a velocity of 100, there was a slider next to it that allowed you to set the velocity to whatever you want.
However I can't seem to find that damned setting anywhere! I have no idea where I saw that. If anyone knows where that is, please let me know.
Thanks.

https://thepiz.org/plugins/?p=pizmidi is a great set of "simple" MIDI translation tools. MIDIMonitor is a useful tool.
... although you may have to pick it up somewhere else.

Sample list of tools included, and the one you want is at the end.
What's even better is that you can SCALE the midi keyboard, from being hyper sensitive, to taking the full range of the keyboard and remapping to, say, 50-100 for velocity; so you get SOME variation, just not as extreme. Better doing it this way than adjusting the keyboard settings for one-off VST's that are problematic. Great for piano or strings that occasionally have "excessive" variation in velocity response.
(Or using velocity to force modulation on, say, an organ ?? )
There are even tools here that allow you to convert, say, pitch bend to modulation or pressure. I had an old casio that I liked the feel of, but didn't have a mod key, so used pitch bend for that function.
midiSimpleLFO - One CC LFO with some "simple" options.
midiScaleChanger - Transposes notes by individual scale degrees and/or globally, to change one scale into another. Among other things, this allows you to play any scale using only the white keys.
midiSostenuto - Like a piano sostenuto pedal, but for MIDI notes instead of piano dampers.
midiStrum - Sequentially delays notes of an input chord to simulate strumming.
midiStuckNoteKiller - Sends note-off messages to end hanging notes when the host stops (for hosts that don't do this themselves).
midiSwing - Delays and/or offsets velocity of and applies probability to notes (and optionally also CCs) at every other step of a selected note value.
midiTriggerList - Use one note or CC to trigger up to 8 other notes and/or CCs.
midiVelocityScaler - Scale/reverse/offset velocity of input notes (Note On and/or Note Off).

I am not so sure if this indeed is in Waveform. Now curious about this I searched for it and couldn't find it nowhere, like you didn't find it nowhere in Waveform. Also, above provided answers are from users who are known here on the forum to be quite well skilled in the usage of Waveform.
Maybe you saw this functionality provided in some MIDI instrument, which you have had in use in Waveform?

Actually, yes, my mistake, and my apologies to all.talby wrote: Thu May 22, 2025 7:47 pm Maybe you saw this functionality provided in some MIDI instrument, which you have had in use in Waveform?
It turns out it was in the RandARP arpeggiator VST plugin by CodeFN42. It makes sense to me now why I thought it was in Waveform, and why on earth I couldn't find it again LOL.
BTW, this is a great arpeggiator, and I recommend it highly. Much better than the one included in Waveform Pro.
