Using the vocoder and auto-pitch
The vocoder adds eects to a human voice. If you run your voice
through the vocoder, you can give it an uninected, robotic tone.
Control the pitch by playing the keyboard.
The auto-pitch tone reduces wavering in pitch to generate a pitch-
corrected sound. This adjusts the pitch variations in steps, producing
an articial eect.
The vocoder and auto-pitch settings are saved to the [VOCODER]
button.
MEMO
The vocoder can only be used for part 1.
1. Move the cursor to the scene.
2. Press the [14] (VOCODER) button.
3. Use the value dial to select a scene.
4. While playing the keyboard, vocalize into the
microphone.
* When AUTO PITCH is selected, you don’t need to play any notes
on the keyboard.
