    Besides the size, I am sad for Spitfire sampler guys, sampling those 4 billion layers. :(

    Don't know if this is DAW-dependent (and I don't think so) but last time I checked some pitch values in an editor, there were + - values and a 0 for no change...
    AFAIK pitch is transmitted with MSB and LSB and therefore has 127*127 values of which one half is positive and the other negative. So there is a standard zero.

    This is due to a bad controller or some concussions while playing.

    :D I think it has to do w/ pitch bend range and separate pitch bend sensitivity. Maybe?
    You can have PB that will let you bend (usually) +- a semitone (+- 8192 @ 14 bits) or something else entirely depending on random chance. It seems. I dunno. I don't wanna get into a whole MMJ thingy about it, but I hope they standardize it.

    Yeah... Every library will be ended in 2119 or later. Not coming soon! Good news for our grandsons' grandsons! It is so because of midi 2.0

    Ha, this is correct, 127*127 was wrong. :facepalm: Thanks.

    That's a good thing. :yes:

    Well, don't know, I played keys for years and still use a master keyboard to play everything and never had any big issues with faulty PB values...
    Let's wait and see how they mess it up this time. [​IMG]

    I mean, I don't rly know much about MIDI, my lovely tigery friend, but I know that PB (sometimes) & automation (all times) rly are the two big things that screw up. I just hope it gets fixed! It's weird and spooky how consistently and unconciously I can hit a 64 velocity all the damn time, which feels rly wrong given my ineptitude! There needs to be more accuracy than that!

    Ever saw a tiger blushing? :winker:

    You should see how consistently and unconciously I can easily hit a different velocity all the time, that's really impressive. [​IMG]

    But you're right, 127 steps are just not enough for an expressive performance.

    Dave Smith of Instruments fame. One of the creators of MIDI. Thirty seven years later, we're still at Version 1.0.

    While you're waiting for the next version, don't hold your breath.

    Hoping that it will be really backward compatible, I think it's a good thing. Improved velocity dynamics is great for pianos, and it gets nearer to advanced instrument standards like the AvantGrand.

    Also, while I understand that anyone is rightly worried about the huge sample libraries that could follow to this new protocol (they're already too fat for my taste), I believe that physical modeling is going to take over samples (it will take a while, though).
