Velocity is a useful piece of data and being able to edit it easily is important. It can be used to control dynamics, filters, multiple samples and a variety of other functions. Understanding all of the options available to you for editing velocity can help you decide which tools to use for different circumstances.

I'll begin by briefly explaining what velocity can be used for and then dive in and show you many various ways velocity can be edited. Although all of the examples I'm giving are specific to Logic, the techniques can be applied to any software that allows you to manipulate velocity. The tools may look different, but the principles are the same.
