Also, velocity is not volume, many confuse this. It is partly volume but what it actually does is change the timbre of an instrument depending on how hard the key, or string or drum is hit. Listen to a snare tapped lightly vs slamming it. That's velocity. Yes, it's also louder but the whole character of the snare is different. Same with piano. hit the key with full force you get an entirely different sound than you get by hitting the same key lightly. Expression is also commonly used instead of simple volume depending on the instrument.
