Voice-FXEver wondered what your voice would sound like if you were a woman (for men), man (for women), robot or
something else…? You’re about to find out:
(1) Press the [VOICE-FX] button.
(2) Sing into the microphone and listen to your-
self. (You may have to switch off the [SMALL]
or [ENSEMBLE] button if it lights to hear how
this function works.)
(3) Press and hold the [VOICE-FX] button. The dis-
play now looks as follows:
(4) Press one of the twelve preset fields in the
center of the display to try out other possibil-
ities.
Auto TuneHere’s another interesting effect that can either be used as gimmick or to ensure that even the flattest of rendi-
tions suddenly sounds in tune. Of course, the voice will sound somewhat “artificial”, because the emphasis is on
tuning here. However, even if you just speak the words of a song, it will be sung just the same.
(1) Press the [AUTO≈TUNE] button.
(2) Start song playback and say something into
the microphone (don’t sing).
Sounds like a very popular effect, doesn’t it?
(3) Press and hold the [AUTO≈TUNE] button.
The display changes to:
Let us begin with the most important parame-
ter: the notes that will be used by the Auto
Tune. That is what you specify via the Auto
Tune Assign fields.
(4) Set the Track value to select a song part.
The “4” setting usually corresponds to the mel-
ody part, and is thus the most likely candidate,
but feel free to select “1”~”3” or “5”~”16” to use
another part as melody.
If you want to play the melody yourself, press
the [Left] or [Right] field (or both) and play the
desired notes, while you speak (or sing) into the
microphone.
Note: Selecting “Left” and/or “Right” will set the Track
parameter to “Off”.
Use the Octave parameter to shift the pitch of
the Auto Tune notes up to 2 octaves up or
down.
(5) Press the [Vibrato] field to add some “wobble”
to the Auto Tune sound.
This vibrato effect is not linked to the Voice-FX
vibrato, and can thus be set separately (see
below).
(6) For more refined control over the Auto Tune
voice, press the [Edit] field:
Though they are not linked to their namesakes
on the Voice-FX Edit page, most parameters on
this page will look familiar. Therefore, please
see above for the explanations of Gender and
Vibrato Rate, Depth, Rise Time, and Delay
Time.
