AKAI MPK Mini - Adjusting The Key Sensitivity/Velocity Curve!

dosent work with the mini plus

Bless you!

Thank you so very much

Thank you for this great hint! I use the MPK Mini together with the Arturia Minilab 3 and they were so much different in volume. Going to 13 with V2 equalized them

Great tip! Just out of interest, which DAW were you using??..

Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to make this video.

Thanks man, it was really starting to get on my nerves lmfao.

dude, nice voice lol

I can find anyone saying how to adjust the pads and they have twice the velocity on mine.

THANK YOU

is there anything like this for drum pads? I have to push really hard to activate it

Question please, Can Mpk mini have a factory Reset and How....cheers.

Great, is there also a menu to do the same for Pad sensitivity?

Bro dont work...

Doesn't work for me

Very helpful thanks!

Hands down the best step by step tutorial. Thank you very much. I almost returned my mini because I hated the way it responded to my touch. I could not find anything from AKAI on how to adjust the curve, unless I was looking at the wrong stuff. Anyways, THANK YOU.

Tks!! I was getting frustrated! I found that setting it up as 16 worked for me :)

Thank you so much. This is my first synthesizer and as a pianist, slamming the keys was really annoying me.

Lo amo cucho

Thanks for the video, I had a similar problem to everyone else here. So I tweaked the velocity setting as per your video. I think I stumbled on the meaning of V1 thru too V4. V1 is the soft touch, where as V4 is the hard touch and the numbers are milliseconds of time to trigger the touch point. So I wanted to hit the 127 velocity with a gentler press, so I changed V4 to 10.0, (previously 02.0), V3 to 12.0, V2 to 15.0 and V1 to 19.0. I could be completely wrong in what I am saying here, but I recon V1 takes 19.0 ms to register a soft touch and V4 takes 10.0 ms to reach the hard touch point. These settings seam to work for me. Try these numbers to see what you think.

and for pads?

Thanks bruv!

An absolute life saver. Thank you so much! :D

cheers bro, now i dont have to full on punch my mini anymore lol +1

what a legend. thanks so much

Capooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!

Hi, thanks for posting this but you forgot to explain what V1, V2, V3, and V4 actually do or where you got this info from. On my mini play Mk3 I just bought this does NOT seem to work, and it's NOT in the user guide. If anyone has better info please post. Thank you!.

Thanks!

LIFE SAVER!!!!!!!!! I was worried I totally blew my $180 on a keyboard that hurt my tiny chihuahua hands after playing for a minute; and such is resolved now, in such a short video! I thought I'd atleast need the software to make that adjustment but nope :D Thank you so much for this! I should've looked this up sooner than I did, I did not think it would've been that simple or was even something that could be changed at all

Thank you for this, although I'm not sure I quite understood what V1, V2, V3 and V4 are.

Does this work for the model: mpk mini play mk3 ?

Thank you sir I was wondering what went wrong with the new keyboard

thank

How can i do this on a mk2

Finally someone who actually gets to the point and explains clearly. Thank you.

You are the best!

thx !

Hi, is there a way to change the sensitivity of the pads?

Valuable instructions. Keys are sounding more natural now.

My 2nd octave f key is low. Dont know why i didnt think of the Full Level menu 🤦🏾‍♂️... Im going to try your tip here and see if it makes a difference. Thanks man! 👍🏽

Thanks

Perfect in every way. Thank you. No stuttering, simple, and presise instructions. Perfect!

How yo do this on mpk 2m

I was looking for that info all over the web, thanks for making the video.

holy shit,....thank you...

Akai should have their ceo fired! How stupid it is when all plug-in I used (kontakt halion elastic ez drummer) all have loud virtual instrument sound and then the mini is so soft even when I hammered it, turn out to be a hidden setting inside the device!

Do you by any chance know how to do this on the MK2? It doesn't have the screen on the keyboard and all the tutorials I'm seeing are for MK3 with this screen.

Without being able to change the velocity of the keys it's almost unusable..

Thanks for any help either way!

what are v1 v2 v3 and v4 value , explain pls thx

THANK YOU
