Setting Modwheel on external controller

[snowday9999]

Hello,

I'm running pro tools 8 LE. I use a cheap casio keyboard for midi note entry and it works perfectly fine. It has a pitch bend wheel that works fine in pro tools. My question is, can I assign this pitch bend wheel to work as CC1 modulation or CC11 expression for playing and writing automation? I can't figure out a way to do it. Is this something that would need to be set in pro tools, or is it something that would need to be set on the external controller? I don't think I can change that information on the cheap casio that I have, so I'm hoping it's a pro tools setting.

Thanks,
Jon

Can't be done inside PT; you'd need some kind of third party utility to do the deed. Keep in mind that pitch bend does not send the usual 128 step MIDI cc data.
