LED below the X-Y display ash when a note is blocked by gating. In Fixed Mode, the Out
Hi velocity denes all outgoing note velocities, regardless of incoming note velocity.
The Random function adds or subtracts a random value to the all velocities, and is repre-
sented by a gray area on the display curve.
The Drive and Compand controls can be combined to create more complex curves. Com-
pand is a simultaneous expanding and compressing tool. When set to values greater than
zero, it forces incoming notes to the outer boundaries of the curve, making them play ei-
ther loudly or softly. Compand values of less than zero, on the other hand, force outgoing
velocity toward the mid-range. Drive pushes all values in the curve to the outer extremes.
Use these two controls together to sculpt or even redene the dynamic structure of a piece.
