MIDI velocity not responding consistently

Hello, my goal is to have each note in a MIDI guitar solo, regardless of note number, rotate a beater onscreen that strikes a lyre with note-ons and recoils with note-offs.

I have a RotateAxis module connected to the beater with the X axis selected and using MIDI velocity as a source. My sequencer is sending it non-overlapping notes of with a constant velocity of 64 in order to produce a velocity pattern of 64 0 64 0 64 0 64 0 (the zeros are the note-offs). The problem is that RotateAxis responds to fewer than half the events, even at a moderate tempo. However, when I switch the source to MIDI note number, it seems to respond to most or all note numbers (but then the beater is just flailing around different positions).

Maybe there's a way to use MIDI note number so that each note both strikes and recoils, but I have not found a way. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Joel,
There are other users with vastly more midi knowledge than I but perhaps this thread from a few months ago might give you some pointers...
