If you want both the main and double track to appear at the Main Output, use the Data Knob to select the amount of the double track you want in the mix. The range is from 1% (double track barely audible), to 50% (main and double track appear at the same volume).

If you want to send the main and double track to separate outputs, turn the Data Knob counterclockwise until the following screen appears (Stereo is the default setting):

Double Track

Stereo

With this setting, the main track appears at the Main Output and the double track appears at the Double Track Output.

ªªHow Double Track works

The Double Track functions works a bit differently depending upon whether or not you are using the TA‑1VP’s Auto-Tune module for your main track. Here’s how:

•• If the Auto-tune module is active on your main track (i.e., its ON button is lit), the double track will be the non-pitch corrected version of your track.

•• If the Auto-tune module is not active on your main track (i.e., its ON button is not lit), the double track will be generated by passing the main track through the Auto-Tune function using the parameters set in the Auto-tune module. Consequently, in this case it is important to select an appropriate scale, speed, and detune value for the Auto-Tune module to produce the desired double track effect. (On the other hand, some unlikely scale note choices or Speed settings might produce some very interesting — if untraditional — effects.)

ªªDouble Track ON Button

When this button is lit, the Double Track function is active. When it is not lit, the module is bypassed. Pressing the button toggles its state. The Double Track On/Off function can also be controlled by MIDI and/or by a footswitch.

ªªOutput/Main Bypass Page

Pressing the OUT GAIN button brings up this page:

Main Bypass: OFF

Output Gain: +12 dB

Setting Main Bypass to ON causes the input signal to be passed through the TA-1VP with no processing by any of the modules. While Main Bypass is engaged, no other controls will respond until bypass is disengaged.

NOTE

Main Bypass can also be engaged by the footswitch. Engaging bypass by the footswitch will cause the Output/

5 – Operation

Main Bypass Page to be displayed and, as above, no other controls will respond until bypass is disengaged.

The Output Gain control is used to fine-tune the TA-1VP’s output level. Its range is –30 dB to +24 dB. (The default setting is 0 dB.)

ªªOutput Meter

The Output Meter displays the level of the signal output by the TA-1VP.
