VCV Rack and Doepfer Ribbon to MIDI controller

[Jens.Peter.Nielsen]

I don’t own a doepfer ribbon controller, But I found the manual here:

R2M_man.pdf

Perhaps the R2M is set to translate the pressure sensor data to MIDI pitch/note value ?

I suggest starting out by simply sending midi note data corresponding to position, and adding pitch bend after you have that working (page 23 in the R2M manual)

Midi to CV + Pitch bend - perhaps a userfriendly module exists - i haven’t found it - but i just ordered an AKAI EWI usb, so I will be looking for one… Some tips:

Noob question: How do I use MIDI pitch bend info in Rack?

I feel like I must be missing something obvious but I can’t see how to use Midi pitch bend info. The PW output on the Midi module gives +/-5v for a 2 semitone bend but the only pitch input on the basic oscillator is v/oct.
