The Yamaha DGX-305 is a digital keyboard that features a pitch bend wheel for adjusting the pitch of notes played on the keyboard. The pitch bend wheel is located on the left side of the keyboard and is typically used to create expressive and dynamic performances.

To use the pitch bend wheel on the Yamaha DGX-305, follow these steps:

  1. Press the power button to turn on the keyboard.
  2. Select the desired instrument or sound from the keyboard's menu.
  3. Play a note or series of notes on the keyboard.
  4. While holding down the note or notes, move the pitch bend wheel up or down to raise or lower the pitch of the notes.
  5. Release the pitch bend wheel to return the notes to their original pitch.

Note : that the pitch bend wheel on the Yamaha DGX-305 is capable of bending notes up to one octave in either direction. Additionally, the amount of pitch bend can be adjusted using the keyboard's settings menu. Refer to the owner's manual for specific instructions on how to adjust the pitch bend wheel settings.

some general information about pitch-shift wheels and how they work. A pitch-shift wheel, also known as a pitch bend wheel or pitch bend controller, is a control on a keyboard that allows the player to raise or lower the pitch of a note or chord by bending the pitch up or down.

The pitch-shift wheel is typically connected to a variable resistor, which changes its resistance as the wheel is turned. This resistance change is then used to control the pitch of the notes being played.

If you're experiencing a problem with the pitch-shift wheel on your Yamaha DGX-305 keyboard, it's possible that the issue is related to the variable resistor or another component in the circuit. If you're comfortable working with electronics and have access to a multimeter, you may be able to diagnose and repair the problem yourself. However, if you're not comfortable with electronics repair, it may be best to take your keyboard to a professional technician for repair.
