PBF4 Pitch Wheel

Just got my PBF4 and I’ve been having lots of fun with it. Curious if anyone out there has ever programmed its faders or knobs to act as a pitch wheel?

Pitchwheel is done like this:
MIDI channel, pitchbend command 224, LSB, MSB

For Grid, you will have to use a code block for it as we don't really have a basic Block for something like this.

In a code block the above looks like this:

narayb narayb ·
midi_send(0,224,self:potmeter_value()%128,self:potmeter_value()//128)

-- self:potmeter_value() is used here to calculate the LSB (cents) and the MSB (semitones) values for the pitch wheel

You'll also have to add a Potmeter Mode block to the Setup event of the fader, to switch it to high resolution.

Also if you want to the LEDs to behave as expected, change the Intensity block the following way:
