Description
Control MIDI pitchbend with keyswitches for precise, microtonal steps. Play the notes with one hand and the keyswitches with the other. The pitchbend range is always +/- 1 semitone. Changing the Keyswitch Range controls how many keys that 1 semitone is spread out across. For example, the default range from C0 - C2 is two octaves, therefore the middle of that range (C1) is neutral pitchbend. With this range, every keyswitch in the octave between C1 and C2 will raise the pitch by 1/12 a semitone, and between C1 and C0 will lower it by 1/12 semitone.
