Adjusting volume of one single midi note

Hi

Is there a way of adjusting the volume of certain midi notes within a region. I used my midi controller to record something and I added extra notes with the pencil(editor), but I want them to be louder then the rest. Should I create another track and play these notes louder or is there a way of adjusting the volume without creating another track?

You can raise the velocity of them, which might raise the volume, depending on the instrument and/or you can use volume curves to raise the volume of any part of a region. If they are playing at the same time as another note you don't want to raise, then the velocity is a better choice to try, then if that doesn't do it, the duping of the track and putting them on separate tracks would be better.

It should be noted that velocity doesn't do the same thing to all instruments. Mostly instruments where you can play harder to make it louder, like a drum or a bass guitar or piano, but I have noticed with a trumpet, full velocity gets you a sharp stab with a slide down of the note, and on organ it really does nothing at all. So, it depends on the instrument being edited whether that will do what you need.
