I posted something about this a while back and never got a good answer.
Time to ask again... :-)
In linuxsampler > 0.5.1 I seem to be missing the pitch bend
functionality. Is there anything special I have to do to get it back? A
stock build of even current cvs linuxsampler does not respond at all to
pitch bend. It works fine with 0.5.1.
Anyone out there has this working?
Can anyone reproduce the problem?

Hello Fernando!
I've just tested my LinuxSampler 1.0 (self built) with three different
GigaSamples. If you have any of them handy:
Sampletekk/PMI BOB Orchestral Brass: Pitchbend works!
Sampletekk/PMI Old Lady Grand piano: Pitchbend doesn't work!
Sampletekk ARP Solina: Pitchbend works!
So it seems to me, that LinuxSampler recognises some info in the .gig-file,
that allows or forbids the acceptance of pitchbend, or perhaps it's just
tuning of the pitchbend in semi tones, set to 0 for the piano.
I very sure it's something of the kind, since PMI took great care of their
instruments. But I could retest with other keyboard instruments - which are
not suppose to bend.
Kindly yours
Julien

Greetings guys,
I agree with Julien on this one. But I don't think it's been implemented
into the gigedit editor yet. Or at least I can't find any option that seems
related to Pitch Bend.
Andrew.

It's implemented in gigedit, but it's a bit hidden. Switch to the
"Instruments" tab, then right-click on the instrument and choose
"Properties". This will open a dialog where you can set the pitch bend
range in semitones, along with some other global properties of the
instrument.

Thanks a lot for the tip!! I can bend my pianos again! (I use that in a

Let me see if I understand. The pitch bend range is in the gigasample
file and it is set to "0" by default (of course pianos should not be
bendable! :-). Linuxsampler 0.5.1 was probably ignoring it but now 1.0.0
honors the setting so I'm left with no bend by default.

Very useful comment... and that was indeed the case as Dominic outlines
later in the thread (see my answer below).
Thanks!
