Pitch bend range This setting lets you specify how far the pitch of sounds produced by the P-100 will bend when you roll the [PITCH] wheel all the way in either direction. The range you set here applies only to the P-100's internal voices. External tone generators may interpret pitch bend messages from the P-100 in a different manner, depending on their own internal settings. 1. Enter MIDI Utility mode. Press the [PB] button while holding down the [MIDI] button. The current pitch bend range setting will appear in the display. 2. Set the desired value. Use the [DATA ENTRY] slider or the [-l] and [+l] buttons to select the desired value. You can set a value from 0 to 12 for the pitch bend range. The number you select is the number of semitones by which the [PITCH] wheel will raise or lower the pitch of a note when it is rolled all the way up or all the way down. Setting a range of 0 will effectively disable the [PITCH] wheel, while a value of 12 will enable the wheel to bend notes up or down an entire octave. 3. Exit MIDI Utility mode. Press the [MIDI] button to exit MIDI Utility mode. 37
