TO USE THE PITCH BEND WHEEL
While holding down a keyboard key with your right hand, use your left hand
to rotate the
PITCH BEND WHEEL UP
and
DOWN
.
Releasing the
PITCH BEND WHEEL
returns the note to its original pitch.
As its name suggests, the
PITCH BEND WHEEL
lets you "bend" the pitch of a sound. This makes it possible to add a
touch of realism to saxophone and other tones.
With saxophone and electrical guitar tones, the most realistic sounding effects can be produced if you play notes and
operate the PITCH BEND wheel simultaneously.
See the
PITCH BEND
section (Default: 2 semi notes) on page 30 for changing the bend range of the PITCH BEND wheel.
Never turn on keyboard power while the PITCH BEND wheel is rotated.
The PITCH BEND WHEEL works for the main and layered voice.
