Newby question - sorry - Velocity/volume confusion - my head

Hello!

Sorry about this. If it's any consolation, I have tried searching for the answer, but I'm still none the wiser.

I've played some midi stuff in, and now I want to fade out some notes at the end of a region. Firstly, how does one change the VOLUME of midi notes, rather than VELOCITY, which is easy?

Secondly, I can happily fade out audio regions with the crossfade tool, but not midi. Do I use automation? Is that the easiest way?

Help. I hurt.

Thank you.

BTW, using CC#7 to change volume will always be reflected in movements of the channel strip's fader. But... using CC#11 to also change volume (if your plug or synth supports this) will not be reflected in the position of the channel strip's fader. The only way you can see a graphic representation of CC#11 volume rides is to look at the curve of the CC#11 MIDI data that gets recorded (most easily seen in one of the hyperdraw displays).
