I mean, you are already "performing"; it's not as if it is computer-generated (or drawn with the mouse), so it should already be "humanized." I believe the real issue lies with subpar MIDI keyboards that lack sufficient responsiveness. This is rarely a problem for me with guitars, where I can always dial in velocities with exactly the precision I have in mind (and I'm an amateur).
FYI Another way MIDI is humanized in DAWs is in the temporal domain (i.e., rhythm/timing). This was popularized by Ableton's Groove Pool [1].

- BriggyDwiggs42 3y agoWhy couldn’t you use this on drawn in midi data? I figured that was the point.
- erwald 3y agoYes, that is indeed the main use case.
- lancesells 3y agoThat's what I assumed this was for as well. Take a composition from something like Hookpad and run it through this before importing into a DAW.
- adzm 3y agoGroove is such an amazing feature in Ableton. It's so surprising how much just slight adjustments to the rhythm can make something feel laid back.
- cammikebrown 3y agoIt’s a lot easier for me to play with proper dynamics on an actual piano versus a keyboard. Maybe if it’s an extremely fancy weighted one, it’d be okay, but I generally don’t have access to one of those.

- lancesells 3y agoIn Logic Pro it's called Humanize.
- NikkiA 3y agoAlso 'groove pool' as a term comes from acid pro, which predates ableton (and has always been able to extract groove timing from audio as well as midi)
