Polypressure events can now be added from the Piano Roll
Polypressure is a type of MIDI data that is similar to Aftertouch, with one major difference. Both types
of event are derived from pressure on a key after it is pressed, but while Aftertouch data applies to all
of the notes in a held chord, Polypressure applies only to the note it is recorded from.
For many users of sequencers, Aftertouch and Polypressure are data types that are rarely edited or used
(some devices and software packages filter them by default). However, if you would like to learn more
about these types of data, a handbook on MIDI basics would be a great place to start.
To see the menu that allows you to add Poly pressure events, navigate to the Piano Roll tab on the
Track screen:
From the Controllers pulldown menu, click on the Poly Pressure item. You ll need to choose a specific
note —
meaning a specific octave and pitch.
You will see settings for octaves and the notes that sit within those octaves. As Poly pressure only
applies to one note at a time, you can select the desired note from the menu, and draw in the data for it
using the Pencil tool.
