Pitch Bend - Yamaha PSR-S550 Owner's Manual

Playing with the Effects

Pitch Bend

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. If you use this feature with a Voice
such as the "042 Overdrive" guitar Voice (page 17), you can produce remarkably realistic string-bending
effects.
You can change the amount of pitch bend produced by the wheel, as described on page 81.
NOTE
• Pitch Bend is not applied to the Left Voice when accompaniment is
turned on.
