Using the Draw tool, as for all the automation, allows to create a gradual
change from one drawn point to another. A line in the center produces no
change to the pitch, while a line above the center will bend the pitch to a
- higher note (up to 4 semitones) and a line going under the middle will bend
- the pitch to a lower note.
+ higher note and a line going under the middle will bend the pitch to a lower note.
- The values can be anything between 0 (-4 semitones) to 16383 (+4 semitones). No
- automation or a value of 8192 means no pitch shifting.
+ The pitch change depends on the synth-plugin used. Common ranges are an
+ change of either ± 1, ± 2 or ± 4 semitones
+ for the range 0 to 16383. The range is usually defined by the soundfont
+ for each instrument.
+ A value of 8192, which is also the default, means no pitch change.
