Hi Annabelle, Do you have a pitch wheel on the keyboard you are using? If so, try pressing record on Sonar then, just holding down say C5 and bending the note. Now go into event edit> As you arrow down the numbers on the controllers may give you an idea of how they form the bend. I've never done this myself as I rarely use pitch bend, however, I do step record and alter notes and controllers in the event menu quite a bit.

Especially since I can't work in the piano roll view, without making a mess of the notes. I can only work easily in the Event List. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Wicketts Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2010 8:45 AM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Pitch Bend Commands Hi Annabelle, I would record pitch bend whilst playing, the controller commands will really start to get out of hand if you try to do it manually. Garritan Jazz is my only exception when using lots of controllers, I use a fair few to switch on and off doits, kisses, falls and occasional breathy notes on the trumpet.

I was just now reading the part of the Sibelius Manual that tells about Pitch Bend commands, and I'm a little confused on one part. After I would enter the initial range, ~C100,0, ~C101,0, ~C6,2, ~C100,127, and ~C101,127, what would I enter for the ~B0 command for a quarter tone, a halfstep, and a whole step? Would it still be things like ~B0,32, ~B0,40, ~B0,64, ~B0,80, ~B0,96, and ~B0,127? I'm confused! No virus found in this outgoing message.
