Voice Processor Preset: Thicken / Pitch
This page contains parameters for the Thicken and the Pitch
Correction module (Pitch Correction available as an option – see
“Voice Processor: The optional Pitch Correction and Voice Model-
ing modules” on page 252).
Thicken
Thickening makes the Lead voice thicker, by adding two “ghost”
voices to the singer’s voice.
On/Off
This checkbox allows enabling/disabling of lead voice thickening
parameters. It is the same control found on the “Preset” page.
Det. (Detune)
Sets the amount of lead voice detuning.
Spread
Sets the amount that the detuned voices are panned. A value of
100% results in the detuned voices being hard panned R and L.
A value of 0% results in the detuned voices panned to center.
Level
Level knob
Sets the volume level of the lead voice thickening effect.
Pitch Correction
Available as an option – see “Voice Processor: The optional Pitch
Correction and Voice Modeling modules” on page 252.
The Voice Processor will listen to the pitch of your voice, com-
pare it to the selected correction scale, and then apply pitch cor-
rection in realtime. The amount of correction applied is
governed by the various amount and timing settings available.
Pitch correcting your lead voice not only makes for great sound-
ing lead vocals, it can also benefit your harmonies in that the
pitch correction is applied prior to harmony voice generation.
Pitch Correction On/Off
Check this parameter to turn Pitch Correction on. This is the
same as the “Pitch” parameter in the Preset page (Voice Proces-
sor Preset section), and in the Mic panel of the Style Play and
Song Play modes (main page).
Root
Pitch Correction scale root.
Scale Type
Pitch Correction scale type: Major, Minor-Natural (natural
minor), Minor-Harmonic (harmonic minor), Minor-Ascend-
ing (ascending melodic minor), Chromatic and Custom. This
setting, in combination with Root, determines which notes your
input vocal will be corrected to.
Attack
Pitch Correction attack rate. Sets the responsiveness of the cor-
rection. 0% is slow, and 100% is fast. Settings of between 16%
and 40% give the most transparent pitch correction. High set-
tings can give you a robotic sounding effect.
Amount
Pitch Correction Amount. Scales the amount of automatic cor-
rection applied to the input voice. The range is 0% to 100%.
However, 0% does not mean that the correction is turned off.
The amount of applied correction depends on how far out of
tune the input note is. This allows for a very musical way of cor-
recting pitch. It corrects the large pitch errors while preserving
the natural micro variations around the target pitch. For exam-
ple:
• With the amount set to 100%, a 10 cent flat input will be
corrected by 10 cents and a 50 cent flat input will be cor-
rected by 50 cents.
• With the amount set to 80%, a 10 cent flat input will be
corrected by approximately 5 cents and a 50 cent flat input
will be corrected by approximately 40 cents.
• With the amount set to 0%, a 10 cent flat input will not be
corrected and a 50 cent flat input will be corrected by
approximately 10 cents.
Window
Correction Window. Specifies the maximum distance (above or
below) in cents an out-of-tune note can be from the closest cor-
rection note and still be corrected. A very small window setting
will cause correction to occur only when the singer is singing
very close to the correct pitch. The maximum window size is 200
cents or a whole tone above and below the target pitch.
Custom Scale
This diagram, available when the Custom Scale Type is selected,
provides a chromatic list of notes beginning with the scale root.
Checkmarks indicate which notes are in the pitch correct scale
and which are ignored. No checkmark means that the note is
ignored. Modified (custom) scales are stored with presets.
