Staccato with Velocity Switch

You can open multiple instances of Session Horns, and utilize different “Single Articulation” settings to use different articulations, however;
By inputting short notes, and using “Velocity Switch”s “FoPiCre,” you can create staccato sounds as well.

Using Expression CC♯11, to create dynamics

From the “Control,” select 【DYNAMIC CONTROL】→【Expression CC♯11】.

For “Cubase,” select 【Controller lane】→【CC 11 （Expression）】.

• Velocity Switch – Use to switch playing style
• Expression CC♯11 – Use to control the dynamics

Using Doits/Falls

To use Doits/Falls, select
【controller lane】→【pitch bend】.

For Falls, there are 2 types of speed.

• Slow Falls – Pitch bend slightly
• Fast Falls – Pitch bend all the way down

※ Doits have only 1 speed setting, and doesn’t have the above functions.
