It really is tedious to have to make a whole track dedicated to the velocity of a note. It's also tedious to have to put in a dot thingy or two for every note you want with a different velocity. So, I feel that being able to change the velocity through the original note track (midi track) where the notes are actually at would be extremely useful as far as making things a whole lot easier. My suggestion would be to simply be able to utilize ALT + LEFT CLICK and drag up or down to change the velocity of the note. If you wanted to go further, we could set ALT + RIGHT CLICK to be able to open a menu or box or something so that we can customize how the velocity of the note might change on the Attack, Decay, Sustain, and Release. This might include, but not be limited to, examples like: The velocity will increase the longer the note sustains and/or decays, but will not if it only stays for like maybe an 1/8th of a note; The velocity will be very low upon the attack, increase lots through decay and/or sustain, and decrease on release. This kind of automation, if used right, can help monitor the cutoff as well. In fact, this feature would be great for resonance as well. And maybe a bunch of the other automation types if possible.

uh whaaaat are you talking about xD
I'm not sure if i understand your text correctly..but that's been possible for ages, crtl +a to highlight all notes and then change the velocity with your mouse, you do realize that the lines with a dot on top are the velocity values right?
"we can customize how the velocity of the note might change on the Attack, Decay, Sustain, and Release." This whole part of the request makes no sense. Velocity means how hard you hit a key on a keyboard (or pressed a pad, etc.) it is not a continuous event, but a one time event. It doesn't make sense to change it afterwards during the envelope. You probably mean -aftertouch-.
