1. Pitch Bend Wheel: The Pitch Bend Wheel sends out MIDI messages

used for raising or lowering the pitch of a voice during performance,

starting from and always returning to a center “detent” point.The range

of pitch values depends on the sound generator (sound card/module or

soft synth) being used. Please refer to the manual of your particular

device for information on how to change the pitch bend range.To bend

the pitch up, move the wheel away from you.To bend the pitch down,

move the wheel towards you.

2. Modulation Wheel: It is very common to use the Modulation Wheel to

change the intensity of effects, such as Vibrato (pitch change), Tremolo

(change in volume), and Modulation (change in tone). The Modulation

Wheel produces a vibrato effect shortly after the sound is generated,

and is most effective for solo instruments such as saxophone, strings,

and oboe. Similar to the pitch wheel, the actual effect and range of that

effect will be set from within your MIDI sound module.
