Tip:
If you are using the microphone as Analyse-source you can emphasize (with Highpass) the sibi-
lant qualities of the voice to increase the intelligibility ( ie. the T's and S's).
On the last 18 menu-pages you can set the volumes and the panorama settings of the other 9 fre-
quency Bands. Yes it´s true: You can indeed select different pan-settings for every single Band! Use
your Vocoder as a psycho-acoustic-processor and distribute in a filterbank-programme the high fre-
quencies of your mix over the total width of the stereo image.
Here is an expample of the menu-page of the first Vocoder Band:
The Bypass-functions as well as the complete signaling of the SIRIUS-Vocoder is explained in the dia-
gram on the following page.
The different basic settings of the Vocoder are stored in different storage areas. Whereas,
for instance, the settings of the Bands are stored in the Song, the Vocoder-routing is stored in the Pat-
tern. This makes sense because: it allows you during a song to change different allocations. For in-
stance the Percussion track is modulating a pad at the beginning of the piece while this same Percus-
sion becomes clattering metal plates at the end of the song. The different storage functions can be se-
lected as usual with the WRITE-key to the right of the display. Select the desired storage area. The fol-
lowing table shows you which setting of the Vocoder is stored to which area.
