Sorry Lorenzo, you seem to have understood me completely wrong. > I feel pitch bend sensitivity should not be defined by the synth
I wasn't suggesting that the synth defines it. However, I was suggesting to allow the soundfont designer to set a reasonable "initial" bend range for a particular instrument. Just like the soundfont designer has the ability to set a reasonable initial attenuation for an instrument. > It is de facto standard that by default the range is +/- 2 semitones, so > changing > the default could be confusing and break existing MIDI (and MIDI-based > sequencer / DAW) files. I wasn't suggesting to change that default defined by the MIDI spec. As I've explained before, my change would be fully backward compatible in that manner. I don't see how your hardware argument is relevant, as the hardware shouldn't care whether the pitch bend rage comes from the soundfont file itself, or implicitly via the MIDI spec. The argument of a lacking precision is irrelevant, as this is not related to the question where an "initial" pitch bend range is defined.
