This software allows me to customize the behavior of the velocity of my piano keyboard to my needs. I use VelPro for my Piano-MP11 with Steinberg Cubase 11pro and Windows 11 with no problems Thank you for this great Software 😊

I bought Velpro to fix an issue with a Keyboard that didn’t have any velocity curve. The VelPro tool is ergonomic, easy to use, has a preset feature and one of the most important functionality : the ability to put a curve on one single note or a range of them, so it can help to fix some defective keyboard, badly regulated ones or create a specific situation. Highly recommended !

A steinway model F upright piano with a tablet generated by AI

The 785 has been a mostly good midi controller for me (and I love its speakers), but in looking at its midi output it really is limited in its range of expression without adjusting the controller to a “hard” setting and making the keys feel extremely heavy. By modifying the velocity curve with Velpro, I’ve been able to significantly increase my range of dynamics with the instrument.

Apply Curves to Notes

Copy/paste a curve to any number of notes at once with this new dialog that lets you select all the notes on the keyboard that you want the current curve to be applied to.

Precise coordinates display when hovering and dragging a point

No need to guess the values anymore. You can now see the precise x and y velocity values of a point when hovering the mouse.

Also, the points now snap to a grid so that you don’t end up in between two velocities, not knowing which one will be applied.

Undo Curve Changes Easily

Every modification you make to a velocity curve can be undone / redone.

Several Presets Per Device

For the same MIDI controller, you can now store several presets in VelPro!

Your settings from version 1.0 will automatically be imported as an “Init” preset the first time you run version 1.1

Multi-client support on Windows

On Windows, there was a limitation to the number of applications that could connect to the virtual port created by VelPro

Now when the MIDI input is disabled, increase the Instances counter to create more virtual ports. The modified signal will get forwarded to all those ports. You can create up to 10 for each device.

David’s Journey to Repurpose His Beloved Vintage Piano with VelPro

David uses a QRS PNOscan II MIDI strip sensor hidden into his upright Steinway Model F from 1885.

The sensor sends MIDI data to a Surface tablet running Pianoteq from Modartt to synthesize realistic piano sounds.

VelPro processes this MIDI data before it hits the synthesizer. This way, David can have the exact musical response expected from a real piano.

Why is Velpro a standalone app and not a VST plugin?

I’ve made a full blog post explaining my reasons : read it here.

We are using a Yamaha Electone FX1 for our productions and this iconic vintage three keyboards monster is connected through a midi Converter to our DAW, but the levels of the velocity signals are always limited to 95. Thanks to VelPro, the curves can now be corrected, and we can reach a perfect level of dynamics.

Springbeats made an amazing product, very easy to use with great ergonomy and a lot of possibilities to twist the MiDi signals. Also big Thank you to the team for their very reactive and accurate customer service.
