Converting a pitch bend (MIDI) value to a “normal” pitch value 
The controller message has an argument that goes from -8192 to 8191 and in standard MIDI files this is supposed to cover the range from -200 cent to 200 cent, where 1 cent is 1/100 of semitone, i.e. a ratio of 2^(1/1200) = 1.000577789506555.

static int  
static int state = 0;

So if you need a variable that is only used within a function and only updated by that function and you need the value of that variable to remain for the next time that you call the function then you need to define it as a static variable.

Placing Variables in Specific Memory Location - MSP430 
In many application, it is sometime necessary to place a variable in a specific memory location. This wiki shows a small guide to implement the specific variable placement for C programming language using most common compilers/IDEs for MSP430.
