Understanding the Vocal Processor The first thing to be sure about is what the Vocal Processor actually does. Quite simply, it harmonizes the mic signal (your voice) up to 4 times, depending on how many notes you play on the keyboard; one note, one harmonized voice. There are also two modes of operation; Vocoder mode and Unison mode. In Vocoder mode, the pitch of the harmo- nized voices depend on the pitch of the notes played on the keyboard. In Unison mode, the mic signal is doubled up to 4

4. Speak into the microphone and turn down the mic volume with the INPUT panel slider. You should not hear your voice over the amp system. 5. Now play a note or chord (of up to 4 notes) on the key- board and at the same time sing into the mic. You’ll hear a vocal harmony consisting of as many voices as the number of notes pressed (up to 4). You don’t necessarily have to sing - you can speak (or even grumble) - the pitch of the vocal harmony will take the pitch of the notes played, therefore, ev
