Channel Pressure is a type of MIDI information, also called monophonic aftertouch, that describes how much pressure you apply to a key while it’s being held down. Finale lets you record, edit, and play back Channel Pressure information. (Channel Pressure data describes the overall pressure level for an entire MIDI channel at any moment. Contrast with Key Pressure data, which describes the pressure being applied to each individual key; some MIDI devices respond to this kind of data. Finale records and plays back Key Pressure data, but you can’t edit it.)
When you record a performance with the Transcription Mode of HyperScribe, you can specify whether or not you want Finale to retain your Channel Pressure data so that you can later hear it applied to the playback of your transcription. For a full description of captured MIDI information, see Finale Tutorials.
