It is totally not OK with me and I'm sure not with everyone else that shelled out the Moo-la for either the Live or MPC X (FLAGSHIP), that the Pitch-Bend functionally is so jacked up outta the box in STAND-ALONE mode. Pitch-Bend is a HOT commodity when you get in the zone for it. You reach for it and it totally FLOP. I think both the Live & MPC X do not deserve to be treated this way AKAI. Now come on and fix the FIRMWARE or whatever WARE to get this very Essential feature FULLY-FUNCTIONAL. The MPC 5000 has pitch-bend and it functions well. Please don't continue to HALF-STEP on this one. Please get it updated with the "QUICKNESS" because I really don't want to return mine for a refund before 30 days is up and hop on the NI Maschine band wagon, but I will because it has already been a dreadful drag through the mud from the 5000, Renaissance, Touch, and now all the way to these almost masterpieces. Pitch-Bend is a must out of the box Akai. How dare you? I'm just saying with Great Expectancy. I know y'all can make it happen.

Been quite patient.

It's been quite some time.

Pitch-bend is one of them things you expect out of the blocks.

Coincidentally, I had a small chat today with someone there at AKAI about this feature and they struck back with the whole update.

I'm Just glad they stop playing...lol

It's all good. Good work indeed.
