MIDI

Lets talk about it. MIDI.

One thing I noticed today listening back after using piano samples in a MIDI template was that whenever I released from a chord or note, the silence was too pronounced which multiplied everything artificial at least two fold. Even though the sample had the noise of the piano key lifting, the silence ruined everything.

It seems that the pallet of MIDI is a problem. Its quiet in another atmospheric way.

I wonder if it would be a good idea to introduce a very quiet hiss to compensate as a template. Or a large room in "silence." Reverb without hanging on to the performance.
