Is there a way to get MIDI pitch wheel to change the pitch?

Question in the title. It would be great if I could noodle on the pitch wheel and have the playing sample affected by that. At the moment I have to use a soundfont sampler VST to get pitch wheel to affect the pitch of instruments. If I use a VST to generate pitch wheel events they are correctly record them to the column as pitch effects, but they don't affect the sound until the second time through the loop.

Since at the time of recording the row has already been played, it isn't really possible to do this at the moment. I'll see what can be done to improve this, but it will probably not be quite perfect due to the simple fact that already recorded pattern data will "fight" against the newly-added live data.

Edit: Misunderstood question at first

Thanks for looking into it, much appreciated. I think it's fine if there is recorded pattern data that fights against the new data, I guess that's the same for any parameter record like cutoff etc.

Should I make a feature request on the issue tracker?

Yes, please do. It isn't quite easy to implement this (same as with the other parameter recording options) so I have no idea how long it would take until we can have this feature.

No problem, understood. Have filed an issue anyway, thanks: https://bugs.openmpt.org/view.php?id=1640

Wow, I did not expect an implementation so fast, thank you so much Saga Musix!
