Pitch Wheel

You can set a range in semitones for the pitch wheel, depending on your
playing preference. The range is up to 12 semitones (1 octave). You can
set different ranges for the upward bend and the downward bend. Many
musicians use a range of 2 semitones (a whole step) since this is the bend
range of many acoustic instruments. For guitar whammy bar effects, you
many wish to set a wider range.
To set the pitch bend range:
1. Press the
range in semitones of the upward bend.
2. Use Soft Knob 2 (
downward bend.
3. Hold a note and move the pitch wheel to hear the effect.
