Pitch Editing
  • PicEdit - Select a length of notes and pitch bend over all of them at once using a range of tools. Includes line tools, S bends, Freehand and [+], which adds new control points where you click and allows you to move existing ones with ease.

Related software that does not fit into other categories.
