David you nailed it. Like you said when you mouse click it registers as a 127 velocity!! That’s a huge difference from a normal playing velocity of 40-90. So don’t you see that as an issue?
Think about it. Your system is sitting at the proper monitoring volume for how you play (vel 40-90)…so you’re riding along…all is at normal volume…and THEN…you mouse click a chord pad OR use the PERFORM function…and BOOM a 127 velocity routes to your instrument and thereby to your master gain (which was playing at unity with your normal playing velocity), now pegs a +10db. Your interface goes into the red, your ears get rocked, and the feel of what you were working on gets abruptly interrupted.
I’d be happy to record a video if you’d like.
