Position: This parameter changes the position of the entered MIDI notes, with values from -500 to +500.Random: This function can be used to add different variations to the notes on the track, like Position, Pitch, Velocity and Length.This function can be used to make drastic changes to the lengths of the notes in the track. If you specify the numerator to be 3 and the denominator to be 4, the notes will be reduced to ¾ of the original note. Length Compression: This is used to adjust the lengths of the notes in the track.This method can be combined with the Velocity Shift function to compress the velocity range. The number on the left and right (numerator and denominator respectively) helps in forming the fractions that will be used to multiply the velocities of the notes on the track. Velocity Compression: This function is similar to the ratio settings that you would find in any standard compressor.Negative values can be used to reduce the velocities of the notes. The number that you specify in this setting will be added to the velocity of the notes in the track. Velocity Shift: This is similar to the volume fader-it lets you adjust the volume or the velocity of the notes.We can also use this for changing the octave of the instrument that we are using. Values range from -127 to +127, though most instruments won’t withstand that much transposition. Transpose: As the name suggests, this parameter lets you transpose all the notes in the selected track to the specified value.Let us see how these settings can help us enhance our live performances. In the MIDI Modifiers menu we are presented with the settings for Transpose, Velocity Shift, Velocity Compression, Length Compression, Random and Range. We'll use the MIDI Modifier tab for this tutorial. We can access the MIDI Modifier tab either by selecting the tab on the Inspector, or by adding it as an Insert in the MIDI Insert tab. The settings that we change will affect the real-time playback of the tracks. The MIDI Modifier is the core function that we will be using to map the keyboard to different tracks for our performance. Whenever you need to select a specific mapping, just mute or solo the required folder. Tip: To improve your workflow, put these tracks inside a folder track. I will be mapping the strings from HALionOne to the notes C2 through B2, Pianoteq to the notes C3 through B3 and a few ambience effects to the notes C4 through B4 using Shortcircuit. I will be using Steinberg’s HALionOne, MODARRT’s Pianoteq, as well as Vember Audio’s Shortcircuit for my samples. By using this trick you'll be able to play many patches/instruments during your performance without having to manually change settings or click buttons.īefore we begin the mapping process, we must select the samples that we are going to use in the performance.

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to map different instruments to different octaves/regions of your MIDI keyboard using Cubase. We keyboard players need to have some tricks up our sleeves! You might have to play a drum loop at one time, a mixture of strings and piano at another, and possibly have to fill in for a missing bass player. Keyboard players often need to play different voices or samples simultaneously during a performance.
