Thanks for replying David--

the "randomizing" aspect of HP. It's not supposed to play each note exactly the same in a mechanical method, which would account for the discrepancies in the lengths of the notes

The randomizing of the whole note value only happens with HP on, with an exported midi file..otherwise, with HP off its says at 1/000-so this would bear out what you've said. Thing is I really dont want any discrepancies..just what I put in, I want to get out.

For the sake of completeness, I include the results with HP OFF, of Fins' exported midi files:..again, the Default On Vel is the original midi velocities, that match the Dynamic values in the Expressions dialog

HP ON HP ON Note Default On Vel Results using Simple entry Results using the HP OFF HP OFF (the expected result) and assigning default dynamics imported mid file, +plugin, again using default dynamics Simple Entry Imported MIdi file ----- ----------- -------------------------------- - ----------------------------------- ------------------ ---------------------------- C3 10 15 28 1 1 D3 23 24 37 1 1 E3 36 39 52 1 21 F3 49 50 63 19 47 G3 62 67 80 58 73 A3 75 76 89 97 99 B3 88 91 104 127 125 C4 101 102 115 127 127 D4 114 119 127 127 127 E4 127 127 127 127 127


Whatever values you have assigned in the Expressions dialog for each dynamic should be the velocities which are produced for each note.

This is what I thought, also--Im probably missing something very simple. but cant for the life of me find out what.and all searches on the forums, wnb etc..turn out really nothing about this plugin.
Im still following this up with MM support.

Thanks again for replying David.

Just a guess, but you may be up against the "randomizing" aspect of HP. It's not supposed to play each note exactly the same in a mechanical method, which would account for the discrepancies in the lengths of the notes as well as in any nuances of dynamics.

Why doesn't the plug-in work with HP turned off? I would think it should work the best with HP turned off because then the program performs mechanically. Whatever values you have assigned in the Expressions dialog for each dynamic should be the velocities which are produced for each note.

Very curious!

Thanks for investigating this stuff.
