Pitch Bend using an encoder

Ok, new user, first post.... Sorry if I'm using the forum the wrong way!

Hi all!

Just got my first Intech controllers and am very excited!

I'm currently working on an Ableton based project and wated to just try the controllers out a bit. Totally new to the Grid Editor etc...

What I wanted to do was use one of the EN16 encoders to control pitch bend on a synth in my DAW. I'm getting the midi messages and stuff and I figured out how to change which CC number I wanted to send (CC 1 for Modulation)

What I'm wondering if anyone knows how to make it go back to "the middle" (value 64) in some way? Either every time I push the button on my chosen encoder, or by only sending this when pressing down the button and upon releasing the button making it go back to value 64?

I managed to send CC value 64 upon pressing the button, but the value stored in the encoder ewould also need to be ovverridden somehow....

Would love some tips and help! Happy music making!

Hey and welcome!
I just created a profile for you: Pitch Wheel and Push Reset

The pitch wheel uses 14-bit MIDI (0–16383).
In the Encoder event, you can adjust the Velocity and Sensitivity.
The Button event sets the encoder to the center position and send out the corresponding MIDI message for that value.

Ok I found a post in the forum:
https://forum.intech.studio/t/how-to-create-pitch-wheel-value-from-10-bit-fader/168

That made it send pitch bend commands.

What is left is making the button snap the value back to 64, and overwrite the stored value in the controller....
