Sounds like you need to also cancel the default velocity-to-attenuation modulator: * Source: Note-On Velocity * Source curve: concave negative unipolar * Destination: Attenuation (volume envelope) * Amount Source: 0 -~Chris On 06/24/2016 05:17 PM, Ben Gonzales wrote: Hi all. I implemen

Hi all. I implemented the CC2 modulator in a sax soundfont, and loaded it into my RPi2 fluidsynth. I set the EWI to CC2 and the velocity setting to ZERO. This makes the EWI produce "dynamic velocity". What I found was that I could start a note at low breath pressure, and resulting low volume,
