Over this, a swooping synthesizer line is played on Minimoog, using the pitch bend to create effect.

Wheels for pitch bend and modulation control are provided on the left side of the keys.

Such a device provides a musical keyboard and perhaps other actuators (pitch bend and modulation wheels, for example) but produces no sound on its own.

Some controllers, such as pitch bend, are special.

A common wheel on contemporary keyboards is the pitch bend, adjusting the pitch of a note usually in the range of 1 tone.

Electronic keyboards often have two wheels on the left hand side, generally known as a pitch bend and a modulation wheel.

This allows the simultaneous pitch bend and modulation (or other parameters) of each played note individually.

Some controller functions, such as pitch bend or key pressure, are given a dedicated MIDI data range of 16,384 steps.

The resulting pitch bend is evocative of the sound of the pedal steel guitar.

The keyboard is capable of playing arpeggio and includes a pitch bend.
