Velocity Curve on OASYS 88 Key.

Post by **Sharp** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 12:01 pm

Hi all.

Just wondering here, what do you have the velocity curve set to on your OASYS 88 Key right now? I've struggled with this for quite a while as I felt the range was very short and uncontrollable on the default setting.

In all my years using a KORG I've never had to set it to “1” but with the OASYS I do in order to get as much dynamic range as possible from my playing.

It's not a problem, I was wondering what other 88key O users where running theirs at.

Regards
Sharp,

Hi Sharp,

I am not sure what this will tell about my playing

but usually I have the Velocity curve set to 3. When I play E-Pianos or the EXs2 Pianos I change it to 2. Although since the arrival of the Yamaha CP1 things changed a bit

Hi Sharp and Peter,

Well, or something is wrong with my Oasys or I have to go to the gym more often....

If I change my velocity curve (I assume you are talking about the one in the Global page) to 1 or 2 I really have to slam the keys to get any decent volume out of the Oasys so most of the the times it is fixed to the default 4 setting but once in a while I changed it to the 5 setting, With a setting lower than 4 I find it extremely difficult not only to get any reasonable volume out of the 88 but I find it also very difficult to control touch sensitive parameters like cut-off frequency or anything else that is modulated by key velocity.

Best regards,

Pieter

Either it's because I'm weird or a noob with the O, but I do change it to suit the sounds I'm playing.

Pads, I tend to have higher - 5 usually. Leads/solos come down to 3.

Does that make sense?

I'm used to play generally with the default setting 4 but I admit it's a little bit difficult for me to reach the maximum velocity sometimes - even if I'm classically trained. Maybe I handle the O with higher care than needed.

So, I can use the setting 5 - but then it's a little bit difficult to play soft notes sometimes.

4.5 would be the best for me.

Hi Sharp:

In my case it's always set to 4.

I´ve always played in the default mode. I´m not sure but I think is 3 or 4.

Default over here, too.
