This section contains all the knobs & buttons associated with the Vocoder.
Menu - Button
There is only 1 Vocoder in the Supernova II Rack. You cannot have a Performance with several different vocoders on different
parts.
When this button is pressed a series of pages is available on the display containing parameters relevant to this section.
In the Pan section there are 4 pages available. These are selected using the page Up & page Down buttons to the left of the dis-
play
Page 1 looks like so:
The higher parameter is “Sibilance level” In this case with a value of 15.
This parameter determines the amount of sibilance there will be in the vocoded signal. Typically these are the “S” type of sounds in
speech. Use the upper Data knob to adjust this parameter. If this parameter is set to 00 no sibilance from the modulator’s signal
will be passed to the output of the vocoder. If this parameter is set to 15 then large amounts of sibilance from the modulator will be
passed to the output of the vocoder. The range of this parameter is 00 to 15. This parameter is memorised with a Program in
Program Mode or memorised with Performance in Performance Mode.
If there is no sibilance in the modulator’s signal then this parameter will appear to do nothing.
The lower parameter is “Sibilance type”. In this case with a value of Hpass.
This parameter determines if the vocoder uses real sibilance filtered from the modulator or artificially generates it using noise. Use
the lower Data knob to adjust this parameter. In the Hpass mode, a High pass filter is used to extract the sibilance from the modu-
lator. In the Noise mode noise is used to artificially generate sibilance. The range of this parameter is Hpass & Noise. This parame-
ter is memorised with a Program in Program Mode or memorised with a Performance in Performance mode.
Page 2 looks like so:
The higher parameter is “Voc input” In this case with a value of Input 2.
This parameter determines what is going to be the “Modulator” of the vocoder. Use the upper Data knob to adjust this parameter. If
this parameter is set to Input 1, input 1 will be the modulator. If this parameter is set to Input 2, input 2 will be the modulator. In per-
formance mode, parts 1 to 6 can also be selected. The range of this parameter is Input 1 & input 2 in program mode & Input 1,
Input 2 & parts 1 to 6 in performance mode. This parameter is memorised with a Program in Program Mode or memorised with a
Program or Performance in Performance Mode .
