How does the Pitch Stick work, if I wanted to replace?

Hello Nord people,

I have been thinking about replacing the Nord Pitch Stick with a normal pitch wheel.

I know, I know - shocking :)

Now that you have calmed down and poured yourself another coffee . . . . .

When I look at the Pitch Stick, it appears to be mechanical, transferring the bending of that metal into electronic signal that then goes into ...??

What I mean is, how would I replace that with a "normal" pitch wheel from another keyboard?

Electronically - - what is going on with the Pitch Stick? :thanks:

PS - I use Aftertouch for most Modulation/Morph functions because I generally play with two hands most of the time. Love this feature and how it is implemented on the Nord Stage
