Middle C (Note #60)ĭetermines the key convention for the MIDI note range (0-127). Numeric Styleĭetermines the format for MIDI notes that are displayed as numbers. MIDI note numbers make it possible for samplers to automatically map samples to the correct keys. 'Velocity' is a number between 0 and 127 that is usually used to describe the volume (gain) of a MIDI note (higher velocity louder). The middle C will be the closest C to the middle of the keyboard. You can see that MIDI note 60 is middle C (C4). The simplest way to find middle C on your keyboard is to position yourself at the center of the piano. The very first note on an 88-key is an A (A0). For example, key C3 corresponds to the MIDI note number 48. A keyboard with 88 keys has a total of eight C’s middle C is the fourth C from the left. For example, C3 means the note C in the third octave.Įach key corresponds to a MIDI note number from 0 to 127. In musical notation, keys are denoted according to their pitch. The options in this section allow you to choose whether to display the different key values in WaveLab Elements with the pitch or the MIDI note number of the key. If this option is activated and you save a file, WaveLab Elements converts unsupported characters to characters that are supported by Windows. Some characters in file names, for example, | and \, are not supported by Windows. Create Windows-Compatible File Names (macOS only) The frequency-to-note conversions take this pitch into account. Sets the reference pitch in WaveLab Elements. Pitch of A3 (Used in Frequency To Note Conversions)

If this option is deactivated, the displayed level for a full scale sine audio file is -3 dB. This conversion assumes that Middle C is Midi note number 60 and that Middle A is tuned to 440 Hz. If this option is activated, the displayed level for a full scale sine audio file is 0 dB. cpsmidinn is a function that takes an i-rate or k-rate value representing a Midi note number and returns the equivalent frequency value in cycles-per-second (Hertz). The standard merely designates that Middle C is note number. Formats Use AES17 Standard for RMS Values The MIDI (Musical Instrument Device Interface) standards unfortunately do not designate octaves. This tab allows you to adjust settings for some of the audio formats and units that WaveLab Elements uses.
