how to legato slide with midi microtonal scales?

I'm trying to use pitch bend to create scales of n notes. I'm playing external monosynths. The problem I'm having is that when playing legato, I can't work out how to stop notes from cutting off when I want them to slide.

If i play midi notes that are processed and output to my synth as

60 127 ----> 60 127 pitchbend at 40
61 127-----> 60 127 pitchbend at 70
61 0 -----> 60 0 pitchbend at 40

The note is stopped instead of sliding back down to the first note. I cannot work out how to make this happen! Any help appreciated.
