Hi,
According to the manual, in order to control pitch via aftertouch, you must first go to the Sound Creator and edit an existing sound to respond to aftertouch and assign aftertouch to pitch. Then set the aftertouch amount under Function/Controller/Panel Controller. However looking through the manual there doesn't appear to be a parameter for Aftertouch -> Pitch Bend. “?”
FYI- This is similar to what can be done on the Genesys to assign pitch to aftertouch. I have a guitar patch that I created that has a lead guitar that bends via the Pitch Bend wheel in the normal way. But when a high velocity is used on the keyboard, this brings in another lead guitar sound that is pitched 1 step below the initial guitar sound. Then aftertouch is assigned to only that second sound and is programmed to bend its pitch up to become unison with the initial sound. Makes for a great way to do unison bends ala Carlos Santana.

Best Regards,
Dave
