Resting...

I haven't got a XP50, so I'm unable to offer any ideas what it might be, sorry.

Does the 'spike' effect anything attached via MIDI?

If it does it sounds as if you've a dirty contact in the keyboard assembly.
Note velocity / volume is detrimed by the time taken for two contacts to make. Sounds as if only the last one is being made, and as a result you get max note velocity (127).

Thats my best guess...

Might need a trip to the keyboard doctors.
I've repaired many a D-50 with this problem.
