Pitch bend sample

[BearHands]

I am a relatively new user and was hoping for some recommendations. I am dragging in a riser type sample to a song on the sequencer and I was just wondering what the best way to manipulate it is. I want to pitch bend it more sharply and accurately and maybe mess with with it in other ways.
Does anyone have any advice? Do I drag it into a sampler to do that or can you do that on the sequencer somehow?
Thankyou for any help guys and girls

It's hard to say without hearing it, as I would more than likely reproduce it with a synth then I would have full control.

Load it into Mimic or Grain and play with it there.

Yeah we need pitch envelopes in Reason! The only ways to do it;

Put the file into Grain or Mimic (as Carly suggested) and sequence a long note, automate pitch bend and then bounce the MIDI clip to audio (so you don't have to play the whole MIDI note to hear it every time).

Or

Place the riser on an audio track, and then automate any kind of pitch bend plugin. Some are better than others. Polar is okay but doesn't have plugin delay compensation. Neptune miiiight work if you turn off scale correction and just automate pitch bend. Or you could look into a third party plugin. There might be even free ones out there. And again just automate the pitch shift value, as long as it does discreet values and now just semitones.

You can use Kong, NNXT, NN19 and ReDrum as well — and there are even more possibilities too. Europa? Why not.

There's also The Riser, a 'vintage' plugin from AIR that's recently been updated to VST3 and Silicon. It's very flexible and the way it handles the timing of the riser is brilliant.
