Play With a Variety Of Effects

The [PITCH BEND] wheel can be used to add smooth pitch variations to notes

you play on the keyboard.

Roll the wheel upward to raise the pitch, or downward to lower the pitch. When

you release the wheel it will automatically return to center position and the key-

board pitch will return to normal.

The range of the pitch bend wheel can be adjusted in semitone increments. When

the pitch bend range is set to “2,” for example, rolling the wheel all the way up

will produce a maximum pitch rise of 2 semitones (one whole tone), and rolling it

all the way down will produce a maximum pitch drop of the same amount (2

semitones — one whole tone). With the highest possible pitch bend range setting

of “12,” the pitch bend range becomes ±1 octave.

Use the [LEFT MENU] button to select PITCH BEND RANGE.

Use the number buttons [0] ~ [9] or the [+] and [–] buttons to

set the pitch bend range as required.
