| You can create a series of calculated, machine-generated pitch bends by using the Pitch Bend Sequence dialog. | You can create a series of calculated, machine-generated pitch bends by using the Pitch Bend Sequence dialog. In recent Rosegardens the same dialog allows you to insert controller events, such as expression controllers. |

| ==== Usage ==== | ==== Usage ==== |
| ==== Parameters ==== | ==== Parameters ==== |
| === Preset === | === Preset === |
| You can select from 3 predefined presets and 1 user defined. | |
| == User == | The preset box provides settings that store previously entered parameters. For inserting pitch bends, there are also 3 predefined presets: |
| This preset stores previously entered parameters. | |
| == Linear ramp == | == Linear ramp == |
| Ramps pitch from value defined in pre bend box to end value of bend sequence box. | Ramps pitch from value defined in pre bend box to end value of bend sequence box. |
| At the beginning of the selected range it's possible to insert a bend (pre bend), then after a definable delay (duration) the actual sequence begins. | At the beginning of the selected range it's possible to insert a bend (pre bend), then after a definable delay (duration) the actual sequence begins. |
| == Value (%) == | == Value (%) == |
| Value of the very first pitch bend inserted in per cents. -100 % is lowest and 100 % highest possible pitch. 0 is neutral or "normal". | Value of the very first pitch bend inserted in per cents. |
| | |
| | For pitch bend, -100 % is lowest and 100 % highest possible pitch. |
| | For controllers, the numbers correspond to controller values. |
| | |
| | In both cases, 0 is neutral or "normal". |
| == Duration (%) == | == Duration (%) == |
| Duration of the pre bend compared to whole selected range. If set to 100% no bend sequence is applied. | Duration of the pre bend compared to whole selected range. If set to 100% no bend sequence is applied. |
| Duration of the linear ramp in per cents compared to time of selected events minus time of pre bend. Ramp ends before the sequence if lower than 100%. | Duration of the linear ramp in per cents compared to time of selected events minus time of pre bend. Ramp ends before the sequence if lower than 100%. |
| == End value (%) == | == End value (%) == |
| The pitch at end of the ramp in per cents. | The pitch at end of the ramp, defined the same way as "Value" |
| == Vibrato start amplitude (%) == | == Vibrato start amplitude (%) == |
| This defines amplitude of the vibrato at beginning of the bend sequence. | This defines amplitude of the vibrato at beginning of the bend sequence. |
| | |
| | Vibrato is only possible in Linear Ramp Mode with "Use this many steps" set. |
| | |
| == Vibrato end amplitude (%) == | == Vibrato end amplitude (%) == |
| This defines amplitude of the vibrato at end of the bend sequence. | This defines amplitude of the vibrato at end of the bend sequence. |
| == Vibrato wavelength == | == Vibrato wavelength == |
| This defines frequency of vibrato. Defined as resolution units. See below. | This defines frequency of vibrato. Defined as number of steps per cycle. |
| == Resolution == | |
| Sequence is divided in this many pieces. | === Ramp Mode === |
| | == Linear == |
| | |
| | Ramps linearly. |
| | |
| | Vibrato is possible in only this mode. |
| | |
| | == Logarithmic == |
| | |
| | Ramps logarithmically. This uses Tim Munro's algorithm. |
| | |
| | == Quarter Sine == |
| | |
| | The ramp has the shape of a quarter sine wave, from zero to peak, or from zero to trough if negative. |
| | |
| | == Half Sine == |
| | |
| | The ramp has the shape of half sine wave, from trough to peak, or from peak to trough if negative. |
| | |
| | == Illustration of all four ramp modes == |

| | |
| | === How Many Steps === |
| | |
| | == Use step size == |
| | |
| | In this option, each step in the ramp is this size. If the step size doesn't evenly divide the ramp size, multiple step sizes will be used. |
| | |
| | Vibrato is not possible in this mode. |
| | |
| | == Use this many steps == |
| | |
| | In this option, the sequence is divided in this many pieces. This was formerly called "Resolution". |
