6.3 Using RAZORS Vocoder in a DAW
When using the Vocoder in a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) an audio signal needs to be
sent to RAZOR as well as MIDI notes to play the 'vocoded' synth. To set this up is different
in each DAW software and is not always straight forward. So please read the sections be
low for a little help.
Ableton Live
In Ableton Live, insert the RAZOR as an effect. Chose or create another MIDI track. Click
on the MIDI To menu on the MIDI track and select the track where the effect was inserted.
If there are more than one MIDI-enabled effects on the original track, you must select the
specific plug-in you want the MIDI to go to from the drop-down menu below the MIDI To
selection. Make sure you are recording enabled on the new MIDI track, or are using Moni
tor In, to send the MIDI to RAZOR.
Please refer to the documentation provided with Ableton Live for more information on setting
up MIDI for virtual instruments and effects. You may also find more support and information
specific to your scenario on the Native Instruments REAKTOR website forum.
Logic
In Logic, first insert the plug-in as an audio instrument from the track sub-menu called AU
MIDI-controlled Effects. Use the side-chain menu in the plug-in window to choose an audio
track to route into RAZOR. The MIDI will come from the sequences on the audio instru
ment track (or live MIDI input if that track is selected in the Arrange window) and the au
dio to be processed will come from the side-chain track.
Please refer to the documentation provided with Logic for more information on setting up
MIDI for virtual instruments and effects. You may also find more support and information spe
cific to your scenario on the Native Instruments REAKTOR website forum.
Cubase SX / Nuendo
In Steinberg products, first insert RAZOR as an effect and activate the RAZOR. Select the
RAZOR as the output device for one of your MIDI tracks from the output device menu. The
MIDI track will now send MIDI to RAZOR. To send MIDI, make sure the MIDI track is ac
tive, playing a clip or monitoring MIDI in.
