Description
Like pitchwheel , pitchbend sends a MIDI message number 224 out on the channel or channels specified. The difference is that pitchbend takes a value between 0 and 127, which is sent out twice as the first and second data bytes of the message, while the more precise pitchwheel function takes a value between -8192 and 8190 (which takes up both data bytes).
The optional input port allows you to specify which MIDI port the message(s) will go out on.
