This problem was mentioned once before on this, maybe by this same Nathan.  I 
can't believe that Kurzweil's expensive ribbon controller can't do pitch 
bending.  That is one of the main functions of a ribbon controller.  Hell, I 
turn a mod wheel or pitch bend lever on any midi synth and connected midi 
instruments smoothly follow.  Why haven't any of the reviews I have read 
about it mentioned the glissando problem?  I still have a possible future 
interest in the Kurzweil, so can anybody confirm that it can actually pitch 
bend without glissando?  Thanks.
