Converting guitar midi pitch bend to notes

I have a Roland GR-20 with GK-3 pickup. The way it handles hammer-ons and other legato styles is by transmitting pitch bend information based on a fixed range of 24 semi-tones.

This causes a number of problems - for synths that do not allow their pitch bend range to be set to 24 semi-tones, and also for using the midi guitar for transcribing guitar parts.

I know that other guitar midi devices (like the Axon) allow you to configure whether legato styles generate new note on commands or pitch bend data, but unfortunately the Roland does not seem to have any way of changing its behaviour.

Does anyone have any experience of a tool that would convert pitch bend data into note on/off commands, either in real time, or as an off-line process?
