You can use the pitch bend wheel to slide the pitch of notes
smoothly upwards and downwards. This technique makes it
possible to produce effects that are similar to sounds
produced when bending notes on a saxophone or electric
guitar.
1.
While playing a note on the
keyboard, rotate the pitch bend
wheel on the left of the keyboard
upwards or downwards.
The amount the note bends depends on
how much you rotate the pitch bend wheel.
• Do not have the pitch bend wheel rotated
as you turn on the Digital Keyboard.
Use the following procedure to specify how much the pitch of
the note changes whenever the pitch bend wheel is rotated
upwards or downwards. You can specify a range from 0 to 24
semitones (two octaves).
