I tried to search for this, but wasn't able to find an answer to see if it's possible.

What I am trying to do is adjust the instrument velocity directly in the MPC Beats app using the sliders underneath the notes of an entire track. Right now, I need to select each note individually, then slide the slider up or down and fiddle with it till it's the same as the previous velocity.

When I load in the sequence example, some of the instrument/sample velocities are just too strong for the piece of music I am writing, so I want them all to be softer.

As an alternative, in MAIN you can adjust the overall track velocity for all notes by a percentile amount, if that gets you there quicker. But I‘d suggest using the other methods explained.

Ok great thanks. Seems so simple now that you've explained it. Not sure why I didn't try it.

I'm not used to MIDI composition. Always been about plugging instruments in using an interface.. but really enjoying all the extra ideas that are flowing.
