Using the Pitch Bend Wheel

You can use the pitch bend wheel to slide the pitch of
notes smoothly upwards and downwards. This
capability makes it possible to reproduce saxophone
and electric guitar choking effects.

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 touch the pitch bend wheel as
you turn on the Digital Piano.
• You also can configure pitch bend wheel operation
by specifying the amount of pitch change at
maximum rotation in either direction. See
"CONTROLLER Screen" (page EN-46) for more
information.
