Re: [LMMS-devel] MIDI velocity handling

[Bill Y. <bi...@an...>]

Couldn't we offer something like a normalize toggle that when checked
scales midi input to fit the 200% range, but when uncheck scales only to
100%? That way people can choose how they want to deal with the problem on
a per instrument basis.
