The Cremona String only have a limited group of automations, where is pitchbend?

Since all of the Cremona Strings come with the Virtuoso articulation, which uses pitch-bend down for staccato, and up for spiccato, it makes NO sense that the pitchbend automation isn't included, for each instrument in the collection.

I somehow found it for the Cello but think in all my messing around, to try to get it to work, I did something by accident, and made it appear in the list. Tune is select-able, to add to articulations but, it isn't pitch-bend.

No such luck finding pitch bend in automations for the other 3 instruments.

I am using Studio One v6 for my DAW.

Nothing should be this difficult!

    I solved the problem myself.

    In Studio One, after you move the Pitch lever in Kontakt, it is shown as last touched, in the upper right corner. ( make sure recently touched is selected under the drop down, small downward arrow ).

    From the upper right hand corner, of Studio One, grab the hand icon and drag pitch bend on to the track, or in Windows hit alt + A. It can also be dragged onto a separate Automation Track, that sit below you track you want to automate.

    This adds the Pitch bend, from the Kontakt player to the track you want to pitch bend

    From the manual page 19 Cremona Strings: Amati, Guameri, Stradivari Violin and Strandivari Cello.

    I hope this open your eyes, my are closed I don't own Kontakt.

    Thanks for telling what I already know.

    Why chime in when you don't have an answer to the question, and don't even own the product in question?
