smoothly upwards and downwards. This capability
makes it possible to reproduce saxophone and electric
guitar choking effects.
Adding a Pitch Bend Effect

While playing a note on the

The amount the note bends depends on
how much you rotate the pitch bend
wheel.
Do not have the pitch bend wheel
rotated as you turn on the Digital Piano.
NOTE
You also can configure pitch bend wheel operation
by specifying the amount of pitch change at
maximum rotation in either direction. For more
information, see the separate “Tutorial”.
You can modify notes even while you are playing. Each
tone is preset with effects that are appropriate for it.
