Description
Acts as a 14-bit pitch bend filter/processor and xbendin2 serves as a 2-byte pitch bend filter/processor.
Examples
Arguments
channel [int]
The number specifies a MIDI channel on which to recognize pitch bend messages. If there is no argument, xbendin recognizes pitch bend messages on all channels, and the channel number is sent out the extra outlet on the right.
xbendin2 [symbol]
Normally, xbendin sends pitch bend values out the left outlet as 14-bit values. If the object is called xbendin2, however, there will be an additional outlet. The most significant data byte of the message is sent out the leftmost outlet, and the least significant data byte is sent out the second outlet.

presentation [int] (default: 0)
Sets whether an object belongs to the patcher's presentation.
presentation_rect [4 floats] (default: 0. 0. 0. 0.)
Sets the x and y position and width and height of the object in the patcher's presentation, leaving its patching position unchanged.
rect [4 floats]
Sets the x and y position and width and height of the object in both patching and presentation modes (if the object belongs to its patcher's presentation).
size [2 floats]
Sets the object's width and height in both patching and presentation modes (if the object belongs to its patcher's presentation), leaving its position unchanged.
textcolor [4 floats]
Sets the color for the object's text in RGBA format.
textjustification [int]
Sets the justification for the object's text.
Possible values:
0 = 'left'
1 = 'center'

Messages
Output
int
The pitch bend value is sent out the left outlet of xbendin as a single 14-bit value. If the object is called xbendin2, there is an additional outlet. The most significant 7 bits are sent out the leftmost outlet, and the least significant (extra precision) 7 bits are sent out the second outlet. If there is no channel number specified as an argument (omni on), xbendin will have an extra outlet on the right, which will output the channel number of the incoming pitch bend message.
