Preferences: General Setup

In this page, you can set various general parameters referred to
Song tracks.

Note:

These settings are stored in the Song Play Setup area of the

Global file (together with all the other parameters marked with the

abbreviation in the manual). After changing these settings,

select the Write Global-Song Play Setup command from the page
menu to save them to the Global.

Melody/Vocal Remover

MP3 Vocal Remover Preset

Use this pop-up menu to choose a preset for the Vocal Remover
(i.e., the processor removing or attenuating the singer’s voice
from an MP3 file).

To activate the Vocal Remover, you must press

a switch or a footswitch with the “Vocal Remover On/Off ” func-
tion assigned.

Try the different presets, and see which one is the most effective
on the MP3 files you will play during the show.

Use the “Depth” parameter to adjust the intensity of the removal.
Higher values are usually more effective, but they may remove
other parts of the frequency spectrum (like solo instruments).

SMF Melody Track

This parameter selects the Song’s Melody track for Standard
MIDI Files. This track can be muted using the “Song-Melody”
function, assignable to an Assignable Switch, Footswitch or EC5
pedal.

Drum & Bass Mode

Drum

This parameter selects the Song’s Drum track. This track is left
set to play (together with the Bass track) when selecting the
“Drum&Bass” function, assignable to an Assignable Switch,
Footswitch or EC5 pedal.

Bass

This parameter selects the Song’s Bass track. This track is left set
to play (together with the Drum track) when selecting the
“Drum&Bass” function, assignable to an Assignable Switch,
Footswitch or EC5 pedal.

Voice Processor Harmony Mode

Harmony Control

This parameter allows you to choose if notes or chords for the
Voice Processor’s Harmonizer should be received from a Song
track, the keyboard, or none of them.

Whether actual notes or recognized chords are received by the
Harmonizer depends on the “Harmony Type” parameter of the
Global > Voice Processor Preset > Harmony page (see the
Advanced Edit Manual for more information).

The Harmornizer only works with MP3 Songs when the chosen
Harmony Type is MP3.

Note:

The SongBook’s “Harmony Control” parameter can change

this setting. So, depending on the chosen SongBook entry, these
options can be considered or not (see page 167) .

Hint:

The use of Voice Processor Presets lets you quickly switch

from an Harmony Type to the other (see “Voice Processor Preset:
Easy Preset” in the “Voice Processor” chapter of the Advanced Edit
Manual).

Off

Nor the keyboard, nor any Song track can send
notes or chords to the Harmonizer of the Voice
Processor. Chords can still be received from the
MIDI IN.

Ply 1/2 Track 1…16

Notes or chords are received from the selected
track of the Standard MIDI File.

Note:

When both players are in play, the Voice Pro-

cessor only receives notes from Player 1 when the
X-Fader slider is fully on the left, and only from
Player 2 when the X-Fader slider is fully on the
right.

Keyboard

Notes or chords received by the Voice Processor
depend on the “(Harmony) Type” parameter (see
the Advanced Edit Manual ):

• if the Chords option is selected, chords are sent
from the Chord Scan area of the keyboard.

• if the Notes option is selected, notes are sent
(instead of chords).

• if the Shift or Scalic options are selected, notes
or chords are ignored.
