Yeah I understand I think, just what you are suggesting is always compressing, either towards the lowest value or towards the highest value, it removes the ability to expand. The reason I need this actually is because of that create chromatic MIDI function. My tracks usually have lots of headroom so even though the MIDI that Reaper generates is velocity sensitive, it's usually all crammed down between 30-70 in re velocity scale. I want to expand that range so I can make the loud hits louder without also bumping the softest hits up into rimshot range. Using what I showed in the gif, I could raise the velocity of all notes as normal, and then use the logarithmic modifier to drag down and bring the quieter notes down further without lowering the high velocities as much. Couldn't do that with a floor!
