Notes node
Pitch Bend
A live pitch-bend knob (±2 semitones) that adds into each note's continuous bend amount rather than re-triggering the note, so moving it while a note is held slides that note's pitch in real time.
What it does
Pitch Bend is a note node: it makes, filters or changes notes before a synth plays them. It takes notes in and gives notes out.
Try it
Automate the bend knob for a slow pitch-drift or vibrato-like wobble on a sustained note.
