Pitch bending?

I've been trying to work on a midi for a while but there is one thing that puzzles me as I need to implement it inside my midi.

While listening to other midi's being played, someone was able to get something similer of a note from C-5 to bend upwards to C-7 with just one single note so it sounded like a siren.

How is this possible with NWC? It would be extreamly helpful.

PS - Most of the posts I read here do not state how to do more then 6 semi-tone bends per a note so this one needs an answer as soon as possible.

There is an example of a very long glissando that someone (Fred Nachbaur?) created to demonstrate, among other things, the clarinet gliss at the beginning of Rhapsody in Blue (by Gershwin).
There are many discussions here about glisses.
Try searching the forum for 'em.

Yes, Fred is the glissando specialist of the NWC community.

The file is called "gliss.nwc" and can be obtained from the helpful files section of the Scriptorium.

Here is the direct link.

Hth!
