I'm having trouble doing what I want which is to bend a whole note from low to high with a full measure (or half) duration. When I use pitch bend it bends the notes before the one I want to bend and they go way out of tune. What is the best way to do this?
There's a big difference between the pitch bend and the modulation "wheel".
You're always talking about the former and it seems the correct one to use.
The easier explication is that you miscalculated the times and duration of the MPC.
