Every once in a while, I'll have to record a live MIDI drum performance, and find out after the recording that the hardwares's velocity curve was not set as dynamically as I would like.
The Kick and the snare might be mostly all pinned on, or around a MIDI velocity value of 126 / 127.
In order to fix my mistake (rather than have the artist re-record their performance), I'll open the MIDI velocity events window, select a range of velocities (say, 119 - 127 for example), tick the "Limit Range" box, and hit "Randomise".
It seems, without fail, regardless of whether the strength is set to 100%, or 0%, all of the selected notes will move to the same velocity value (somewhere within the range I specified).
There is no randomisation whatsoever, other than which single value it is that they all change to.
Subsequently pressing "Randomise" another dozen or so times might make one or two notes move to different values, but for the most part there is no randomisation, just a uniform shift to a different overall value.
This function has never worked for me, regardless of PT version, or platform.
Am I expecting the wrong result?
Is this feature just completely hosed?
Have I missed some mega-thread where this has been brought up before, and perhaps even a solution offered?
Yesterday this happened again, and I finally snapped, and decided to post it here.
Maybe if I'd said something years ago, rather than manually fixing it / re-recording, on the grounds that I rarely need the feature, this would have been fixed a long time ago...
