RobertWS Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I checked the Soft Synth software and supposedly it is supported. Is this the right way to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baay Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Yes, I believe so, but according to this reference, RPN 101 (MSB) should come first: http://www.philrees.co.uk/nrpnq.htm It's been quite a while since I messed with RPNs. My first post to the old forum c. 2006 was about TTS-1 not responding to pitch bend. ;^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertWS Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Thanks for the response and link. I swapped the order and it still didn't work. I tried using TTS-1 and that didn't respond either. I want to bend it (the note) like Beckham! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertWS Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Someone from the soft synth site sent me a midi file with an octave pitch bend range and it worked. Here is what it looks like in the event window: My updated question is...how/where do I insert the "Pitch Bend Sensitivity" event? It is not listed in the Event Manager: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Baay Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Enter an RPN Kind of event, and change the Data value to 0. When you save the change, it will end up reading as Pitch Bend Sensitivity. Cakewalk does this with other commonly used control events like CC64 which presents as '64-Pedal (sustain)' for ease of recognition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertWS Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Thank you! I'm glad no one told me to RTFM because it ain't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the soft synth. I use a hardware XG synth and all I need to send is RPN 0 and 128 x the number of semitones required as the value. Therefore if I want to set the pitch bend range to 12 semitones, the value would be 128 x 12 which is 1536 I enter RPN 0 1536 As RPNs are a combination of CC events, for the above they are CONTROL, not RPN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
