About the VC-2

Patch Algorithms

The VC-2 provides the following twelve patch algorithms. Each of these algorithms optimizes the values of certain parameters to make it easy for you to create a desired sound.

Modeling group

Modeling Choir

This produces an extremely clear choir (multiple vocal) sound.

Modeling Vocal

This produces an extremely clear solo vocal sound.

Modeling Analog

This produces an extremely clear sound based on a synth wave.

Vocoder group

Vocoder Choir

This produces a conventional vocoder sound using a choir (multiple vocal).

Vocoder Solo

This produces a conventional vocoder sound using a solo vocal.

Vocoder Vintage

This produces a traditional vocoder sound based on a synth wave.

Poly Pitch Shifter

Poly PShift

The vocal signal you input via the mic will be heard at the pitch you specify from the keyboard.

Keyboard group

Keyboard Choir

Instead of the mic input, samples will be used to generate the sound. You can add these samples. This creates the sound of a choir (multiple vocal).

Keyboard Vocal

Instead of the mic input, samples will be used to generate the sound. You can add these samples. This creates the sound of a solo vocal.

Keyboard Analog

Instead of the mic input, samples will be used to generate the sound. You can add these samples. This produces a sound based on a synth wave.

Processor group

Processor Type 1

External input (the rear panel INPUT L) is used in addition to the mic input. This produces an extremely clear sound.

* Any keyboard playing will be ignored.

Processor Type 2

External input (the rear panel INPUT L) is used in addition to the mic input. This produces a traditional vocoder sound.

* Any keyboard playing will be ignored.
