I don't know about all of your questions, but here are a few answers.
Yes; you can quantize just pitch wheel events. First, select the entire track.
Next, press shift+F3 to open the selection filter dialog. The selection filter
lets you refine your selection to only selecting certain types of data. Press
the None button to disable all of the types, so that the filter wouldn't select
anything. Then, tab to the "wheel" check box, and enable it. Now, when you
press enter or OK, only the wheel events on the track will be selected. You can
now use quantize, and only the wheel events will be affected. If you don't
quite understand the selection filter dialog, then go back in there and press
the help button for much more info than what I've written here.
For vibrato, you shouldn't be using aftertouch for that. You should use MIDI CC
1, commonly called the modulation controller. This is the controller message
that is sent when you operate the modulation wheel on most keyboards. You might
be able to get Sibelious to use that instead of aftertouch, though I know next
to zip about that program, so can't tell you where to look.

Subject: [ddots-l] Help With Sonar
there are a few things that I need help with. The first one I need help with is
Pitch Bend. The MIDI files I make are usually transferred into Sonar from
Sibelius. It seems that in Sibelius, the program only lets me put in one pitch
bend command per note. When I do it the way I usually would, with the pitch
bend wheel, it sounds like two individual notes, rather than a smooth glide.
How would I put pitch bend commands in Sonar so that they're exactly at the
note length that was specified in Sibelius? Is there even a possibility to
quantize pitch bend commands, like you would quantize notes? Also, another
thing I need help with is Vibrato. I tried Channel Aftertouch, but here's where
the problem is. I only want certain notes to have vibrato. When I put Channel
Aftertouch, unfortunately that affects all the notes instead of just the notes
where I want to have vibrato. How do I work around these? If you have any
further information, questions, or suggestions for me, please feel free to
Email me at any time, as I check my Emails several times each day.
Kind Regards,
Annabelle
