OPERATION
When [VOCODER] mode is selected the main display and [VOCODER MODE] display will show:
EXT 1 (Left) = Connect your sound source (synthesizer etc.) to this socket.
EXT 2 (Right) = Connect your pre-amplified microphone (via mixing desk etc.) to this socket.
[VOCODER CONTROL JOYSTICK] can be used for filter spectrum adjustments
[VOCODER MENU - ‘S’ DETECTOR] can be used to add noise elements to the sound
[OUTPUT LEVEL] can be used for volume adjustments
[OUTPUT PANNING] can be used for panning effect adjustments - also LFO controls when pan source is set to
LFO 1 or 2.
[OUTPUT TREMOLO] can be used for tremolo effect adjustments - also LFO controls when tremolo source is set
to LFO 1 or 2.
In this mode the unit works as a traditional vocoder combining a control signal (Mic)
and the
oscillator sound source. The sound is triggered via MIDI from an external keyboard with pitch
information coming from the internal oscillators. There is an ‘S’ (emphasis) detector for adding noise to the
oscillator sound. This mode can be used to create the familiar ‘robotic’ vocoder sound. When [INTERNAL
OSCILLATOR] mode is selected the main display and [VOCODER MODE] display will show:
EXT 1 (Left) = NO CONNECTION
EXT 2 (Right) = Connect your pre-amplified microphone (via mixing desk etc.) to this socket.
[VOCODER CONTROL JOYSTICK] can be used for filter spectrum adjustments
[OSCILLATORS] section can be used to set the sound
[ENVELOPES] can be used to shape the sound
[VOCODER MENU - ‘S’ DETECTOR] can be used to add noise elements to the sound
[LFO] section can be used to vary the sound
[OUTPUT LEVEL] can be used for volume adjustments
[OUTPUT PANNING] can be used for panning effect adjustments
[OUTPUT TREMOLO] can be used for tremolo effect adjustments
In this mode the input is stereo, with the 11-band vocoder filters
being controlled by the on-board formant sequencer to shape the incoming sound. You can use this mode to layer
vocoder phrases over vocals or any sustained instrument sound. The sequencer can be triggered in a variety of
ways from the [SEQUENCE] menu. When [SEQUENCE-CODER] mode is selected the main display and
[VOCODER MODE] display will show:
