Curious question if I may. Respondents in this thread suggest something is
possible I thought was not possible. Is it true that putting on a whole
note crescendo or decrescendo dynamics

c1\> ... \p

creates midi output with increasing or decreasing loudness for the duration
of that note?

It was my understanding that the midi specification cannot do this. From:
http://www.gweep.net/~prefect/eng/reference/protocol/midispec.html

Here are the possible values for the high nibble, and what type of Voice
Category message each represents:


8 = Note Off
9 = Note On
A = AfterTouch (ie, key pressure) #i.d., attack loudness
B = Control Change
C = Program (patch) change
D = Channel Pressure
E = Pitch Wheel

Did recent versions of LP add some behind-the-scenes magic to simulate
increasing and decreasing loudness for held notes (as, I believe, midi
sequencers do)?

Or am I misremembering everything about how LP does midi (which is entirely
possible LOL)?

Thanks,

Guy S
