I agree here, but you need velocity info to detect noteon and noteoff,
but your organ synth probably should not care about the actual values
and instead play all notes as the same velocity.
For filtering I always use Pd, as it's very flexible and quick to do
all kinds of filters. Attached is a little patch which replaces all
velocities > 0 with 127. This is just five objects connected, I would
never care to use or write a special program for this kind of stuff,
which is quick to hack in Pd, Python, or whatever your "scripting
language" of choice is.
Ciao
