MPE per note volume

[Halo Serene]

How do I automate per note volume - I have everything setup for MPE but there is only Pitch, Pressure or Timbre available, which I don't want. I can't see a way of doing Volume (or adding it to the above list of MPEable parameters).

I have chords where the notes come in at intervals one at a time to build up the chord, but I want them to fade in without changing the volume of already playing notes

Thanks for any help

MPE itself does not support volume per note.

If your synth lets you map MPE Pressure or MPE Timbre to oscillator/amp volume, use one of those parameters as the per-note volume envelope.

Seems like a bit of a lacking in MPE IMO, but I guess IIWII

I am trying to do the above using the new CA Memorymode V2 plugin with no success - I can probably accomplish what I want to do by putting each note of the chords on different tracks, but that kind of fiddly and should be unnecessary since there is MPE

Anyway, I tried doing same using external controllers (Atom and AtomSQ) - I can see on the track's activity 'thingy' that pressure is being transmitted and received by S1 (V7), so I guess everything is setup as far as S1 is concerned. I tried using MPE presets in Mai Tai, but pressure did not appear to do anything to them - so I dunno.

It would be a great start to my journey into MPE if I could get something to actually notice I was applying pressure

I'm trying out what you suggested above re mapping pressure to volume for what I am trying, and Google AI is less than helpful - it keeps directing me to use non-existent controls on my MMV2

TIA for any wisdom, mate

Hiya,
I'm curious are the Atom and Atom SQ MPE capable of transmitting MPE data, ie., each note uses a different midi channel ?
What MPE controller are you using?

It may be you need to have a controller that transmits MPE data in the first instance so that the notes all get their own midi channel.
I tried a Roli seaboard and found SO1 Ver 6 at that time difficult to edit....
unless you can access the data for each note separately you are banging your head against bit of a brick wall.

Kindest regards

No, it wouldn't make any difference if the notes are on one or separate tracks, as long as the same instrument instance is used.

@TDF1981 Any ideas?

Hiya Lukas,
but in theory it would work if you had 16 midi channels and each channel was set to it own channel running from 1 to 16.

Unless I have misunderstood what MPE is about. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Kindest regards
