I’m kinda working into ATCL but fantasie impromptu is because I just wanted to try it

the bigger the better, go for K500

This actually sounds pretty normal. Finishing a piece feels really good and gives you that sense of accomplishment and closure. But now, both the first movement of the Pathétique and Fantaisie-Impromptu are substantial technical projects that are still looming on the horizon. So, it's easy for practice to start feeling like constant problem-solving with no immediate reward.

One thing that can help is shifting the goal from "work on the piece for a long time every day" to something much more specific, like cleaning up four measures, solving one fingering issue, or increasing one passage by a few BPM.
It's much more effective to focus on specific sections or problem areas than to try to just practice for longer. If you hit that goal of improving a certain section in 30 minutes, you've still had a good session.

It can also help to make just one of those additional pieces your main project and keep a different shorter, easier piece on the side that gives you more frequent wins. Seeing regular progress helps quite a bit to stay motivated!
In line with that, recording yourself once a week is also surprisingly effective because it makes improvements obvious that are hard to notice day to day. 

And finally, please don't forget to give yourself some time to enjoy the accomplishment of finishing a big project!

Non-issue for multiple reasons.

Shake out your hand and arm and then let it hang by your side, completely relaxed, and look at your hand closely. The shape of your hand while its hanging loosely is the natural curvature of your specific hand and is what you should use on the keyboard itself. The knuckles is actually the highest point of the hand, not the wrist, so in a truly neutral hand position with no tension or manipulation, the wrist sits slightly lower. When you go to play the thumb, let it move from a sideways rotation (using the wrist as well) rather than lifting and pulling the thumb across. You can use the momentum of your hand to cross over rather than pulling your fingers if you rotate correctly. Hearing that you have pain at the base of your thumb and index tells me that you aren't using the thumb effectively, and are probably isolating it and "pushing" with it rather than letting the weight of your hand and rotation play for you. Let me know of you have any questions about this.

To add to what others are saying, back in the 80's 8 bit processors were common. Those can easily operate on numbers from 0 to 255 or -128 to 127. They can operate on larger numbers, but it requires extra operations, extra effort on part of the engineer and sometimes even extra hardware (if you for example wanted to build a dedicated interface chip). For those reasons back then limiting protocols and file formats to only use 8 bit values was common.

Because the Midi standard designers were worried about companies rejecting the standard on the basis of it being too hard to implement, they abided by the common practice of keeping the values within 8 bits. I think they probably could've gone to 255, but for some reason they ended up with 127 (so seven bits). I suspect it might be because of the existence of the 7 bit COM protocol, that way the hardware and procedures for that protocol could be reused for MIDI. Or it could be because doing math on 7 bits was a bit easier on 8 bit processors. Anyway, the only unusual thing here is the longevity of the standard.

I think these are the best suggestions here, although Military Polonaise might be a little difficult, if you’ve been playing moody pieces recently.

Wowie. If what I'm reading is correct, it's 65000 velocity levels now. Now if only all DAWs and midi keyboards would support it. 

Your piano sounds really good! And your playing of course as well. I‘m currently studying Nuvole Bianche with my piano teacher.

Well yeah, for organs it makes sense, doesn't it? You press a key hard or soft, the volume is the same. 

Yeah, i actually meant pianoteq precisely. I wouldn't complain about samples sounding the same at the same velocity. 

Thanks for the feedback!
How can I articulate better?

no it is not maybe would help on sight reading but most of the times it is just pretty bad

My conservatory teacher told me the opposite 🥲

I believe the MIDI 2.0 standard has increased it to 16 bit 

I think this is more likely a limitation of the VST and its samples than MIDI. Only modelled VSTs (eg Pianoteq, Roland engines) have different samples for each midi intensity. Built-in sampled engines tend to have 2-12 velocity layers, so they don't switch at small midi intensity changes (but some do soft blending rather than switching). If storage space were unlimited, VSTs could use ten samples interchangeably for each key/velocity. Reality is the other way around, mostly not even all keys are sampled - one sample is often used for a group of adjacent keys by stretching.

Btw Midi 2.0 does have more midi intensity levels, so do some new DPs internally. But I think this matters only if one uses velocity-curve adjustment (where steep sections indeed result in loss of resolution with 8 bits).

Medtner night wind sonata

Are you playing on the piano you are taking? Pr do they habe a piano there. Cus if there is one there you sure should he able to play on it before the concert

You need to play with the weight of your arms not with your finger strenght

“Did they lack foresight?” — you’re asking this about a team of some of the most brilliant, innovative engineers who ever lived.

With extraordinarily limited memory, compute power, and bus bandwidth, they created a protocol for integrating musical instruments and computers which has endured over 40 years. It has persisted over its original cable, USB, and wireless, and to this day is extraordinarily robust and reliable—so reliable in fact, that the remote, movable console for the new $12 million pipe organ at Trinity Church Wall Street in Manhattan communicates with the pipe chests and all of that complex mechanism using MIDI.

I think they nailed it!

Omg tyyyyy

Hehe tysm :3

Yea I am :3

I strongly advice to work out your own fingering.
