I'm not getting any response from the pitch bend on my roland xv-88 keyboard when playing v irtual instruments in logic pro.The modulations work when i push the wheel up,but when doing a pitch bend it only increases the volume up and down.The boxes in all the instruments i have tried show pitch bend thennumber of notes to bend,but nothing works.The roland is set and works ok alone and with digital performer and garage band.what am i doing wrong?

Hi Greg
It seems that your pitchbend wheel is assigned to Track automation Quick Access, Just turn this function of or assign another controller to this function under:Options/Track Automation/Track automation Settings.
Good luck

thanks for the reply. i tried what you told me but it didn't change anything,the pitch bend still makes the volume change. i turned off quick access like you said to. helppp
after rebooting logic, i use the pitchbend and it starts loading virtual instruments.. every time i bend the pitch bend lever,it load one virtual instrument,i tried to change it back,but it is still doing it. this is the strangest action i have seen yet,double help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Frank : i have narrowed it down to the EXS 24. the quick access can be on or off now and most of the virtual sounds are reacting to the pitch bend,except for the EX24 which keeps loading new sounds every time i use the pitch bend wheel. logic seems to be much easier to access its sounds than performer with its sampler,so i usually use it before anything else i have.i just need to be sure everything will work day after day for live playing and recording so i continue to experiment. i don't understand what made the other sounds react to the bend but as long as it keeps goin,im ok with it, thanks again. i would like the EX24 to work also as it seems to be a powerfull sound machine.
Hi Greg
It seem that your pitchbendwheel is assigned to the Next/Previous Instrument function of the EXS 24.
To solve this problem try this:Open the EXS under the options button select Preferences,now make sure that nothing is selected in the Next & Previous instrument,now everything should work as desired.
Frank, that did it,that made the fix,thanks several millions,made my day,i owe ya, its workin GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
