Re: [CZsynth] pitch bend cz1

2016-10-05 by Caleb Garner

Remember the cpu speeds of computers in 1985... it was unthinkable back then... midi is 8bit. Only so much data can go through it.


Modern daw/usb can do much more but our casios were from long time ago. So between limited bandwidth for midi slow CPUs (single digit megahertz!) and even a little designed obsolescence would likely drive the units final design.


Thanks,

Is there any workaround or trick anyone might know of for having the pitch bend only effect the RH? I was hoping to trigger pads and drones with the LH, hold them with the pedal, and then play leads with the RH using the pitch bend with LH.
