Fluid Pitch revolutionizes MIDI pitch bending by ensuring every bend stays harmonically accurate. Rather than landing on dissonant tones, this plugin locks your pitch wheel input to the notes of a chosen scale, empowering keyboardists and producers to perform with both precision and creativity.
After selecting a scale—major, minor, pentatonic, or an exotic mode—Fluid Pitch intercepts incoming pitch-bend messages and snaps each micro-bend to the nearest scale degree in real time. Whether you’re crafting soaring leads or evolving pad textures, every transition remains musical without manual editing.
Expressive Control
Constrain your bends to valid scale tones, opening up fresh melodic and harmonic possibilities for solos, chords, and ambient effects.
Efficient Workflow
Automatic mapping of bends reduces post-production cleanup. Spend more time refining your dynamics and sound design rather than correcting off-key notes.
Genre Versatility
Adaptable to pop, rock, jazz, electronic, and beyond. Its comprehensive scale library supports both common and unconventional modes, so you can explore new tonal landscapes.
Supporting MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE), Fluid Pitch grants independent bend control over each note in a chord. This enables you to:
Bend a single voice without altering others
Sculpt microtonal harmonies with precision
Layer complex polyphonic bends without clashes

Works in every major digital audio workstation, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro X, FL Studio, Cubase, and Studio One. Simply insert the plugin on a MIDI track, pick your scale, and start bending.
Load the plugin on any MIDI channel.
Select a preset scale or import your own.
Use your controller’s pitch wheel or expression device to play—every bend will automatically stay in key!
