Remove MIDI Pitch Bends

Version 0.1
Added 02 Aug 2012 (last updated )

For use with Sibelius 6 and Sibelius 7

Remove MIDI Pitch Bends removes all MIDI pitch bend messages in your selection and optionally adds a pitch reset message at the start of each staff in your selection. MIDI pitch bend messages look like ~B47,66 and instruct the MIDI instrument to tune itself depending on the message; ~B0,64 in particular changes the pitch to default tuning. If you've used a plugin to add large quantities of pitch bend messages to your score (like Offtonic 19-TET or the quarter-tone playback plugin that ships with Sibelius), this is a quick and handy way to take them back out.

New in version 0.1.0:

• Initial release
• Removes pitch bend messages. You know, like it's supposed to!
• Has the capability to add a pitch reset message (~B0,64) at the start of the selection in each staff in case previous music contains pitch bends
