Bending a chord two tones

Post by genus9 »

Ok..Good news single note bending in the pitch PFX menu.This a part of the Fantom Function.

I want to play a song in Live mode with several other live patches..But I want to bend a chord?????? :( in tune ....

Answers on a postcard...No...
Can it be done ? If so what book, paragraph, and phrase...

Thanks again....Last one on this I hope!

genus9, I think what you're asking is how to reliably pitch bend down or up 4 semitones, yes?

you can set this in Patch > Pro Edit (hit PATCH twice).
Go to Pitch then adjust pitch bend range up / down to +/-4

If you are playing multiple parts and only want the pitch bend to affect one patch, you do this in LIVE > PART VIEW > PITCH and send bend to 0 for any other parts you don't want to bend.

Is that what you needed?

In a nutshell the pitchbend works for a single note only....
I want to play a chord and control the pitchbend i.e. the whole chord down to 4 tones. This way it is in tune.
If you use the method suggested by Artemiy and yourself, suggested then it only works on a single note...I want the whole chord to bend...

The only other way out that I see is to use a polyphonic synth sound with an orchestral or brass multi note patch. Where the one note is multiplied sounding with several similar notes....(i.e. 3 or 4 C notes together)

I would have thought with technology today that the G6 would be intelligent enough to bend a chord...unless I am missing something simple here!

Any input would be appreciated.

Thx

I believe it's an option in the system menu implemented in version 1.30, look there.

I have been through the system Menu and cannot find the option for Pitch Bend for a chord...

Any one else with any ideas?
