String Bending Up/Down with Velocity Sensitivity Control

How to do this, that and the other. Share, learn, teach. How did X do that? How can I sound like Y?

Some plugs (for example, Plugsound Free) have the ability to achieve string bending emulation when striking a note harder.
Is this easy to achieve?
What needs to be done to get this capability?

I love when my HALion does that on guitar sounds. Can't give you more than that :D

Is it a bend or a legato to another note, like a hammer-on with a guitar?

It would be triggering different samples at the higher velocity.
With the guitar it could be triggering a hammer on sequence.

I think it's more like a bend (not a slide from one fret to the next, but actual bending of the string to raise pitch).

In plugsound free (I assume you're referring to the Spanish guitar patch), the note "bending" is really a hammer-on, not a string bend. And it's accomplished by programming a sample layer at high velocity that actually includes the hammer-on as part of the sample.

Thanks. I was intending to listen to it again to be sure.
I imagine hammer-ons and string bending aren't achievable without additional samples?

Hammer-on: nope.
Bending could be done with yer pitch wheel ofcourse ;-)

yes, pitch wheel can be effective
