All that explains why I've never seen it, I never upgraded to 12. Loved the way it handled audio clips and whatnot, but I just couldn't take the arrangeer anymore and went back to Cubase and Logic Pro (if you wanna talk about stupid convoluted time stretching, there's your winner right there).

 

Studio one pro 7 and FL are a good combo

 

I manly use Ableton (+ Reaper) and I find that it is quite the opposite (and I hope I'm wrong..)
- Ableton: 'scales' velocity, so if you have notes at 80 and accents at 100 and drag the notes up by 20, accents will be like 125.

- Cubase: either 'scales' (middle handle) or 'moves' (anywhere under the bar). If scaled the result is like in Ableton, if moved, everything moves by same amount.

I understand why velocity get 'scaled', but would like to see an option in Ableton that allows to 'move' and/or even 'compress' eg. recorded MIDI velocities in the editor (without using velocity tool). I mean, when dealing with audio, people mostly compress it..

This is something that bothers me w Ableton for a long time. I think there's hope now with Transformation Tools. There are all sorts of shapers, randomizers etc.. but I haven't found sort of simple velocity manager. Any ideas welcome..
