Pitch Bend makes song out of tune

Hey, I've posted a few questions here before. Pitch Bend and using it is fine, but the problem is when I do it wrong. When that happens, I then need to transpose that whole track because the pitch bend throws it off.

Is there any way to prevent this? The NWC gliss file was a little too confusing for me.

Can you just remove or edit the incorrect pitch bend command?

Press F6.  That performs a reset on all staves/tracks.

You have to return the pitch to zero (center) when you are done bending. Most of the time you can do this within the MPC; other times you will have to throw in a fresh Pitch Bend (absolute, zero time offset, centered) right where you need the pitch to return to normal.

(You can also string together multiple pitch bends if need be by using extra MPCs with larger time offsets.)
