Auto Tune settings

When the [AUTO≈TUNE] button lights, only the words you say will be used. The melody for these words is gener-
ated by the Vocal Harmonizer. This is similar to the Vocoder part, except that Auto Tune is monophonic (and thus
meant as “solo voice”).

(1) Press the [Vibrato] field to add an automatic

Vibrato effect to the generated voice.
The Vibrato parameters can be set on the Edit
page.

■ OCTAVE: If you are not happy with the register of
the generated voice, you can transpose it up or down
by up to 2 octaves.

(2) Set the desired “Track” value with the [VALUE]

dial.

■ Track: This is where you select the track that
should supply the note information for the melody
to be generated. In most instances “4” is a good
choice, because that track usually contains the mel-
ody.

Note: Use the Minus One function to mute the selected
track if it should not be played alongside the generated
vocal part. See page 19 for details.

Press the [Left] and/or [Right] field if you want to use
the melody you play on the keyboard. The “divide”
between Left and Right follows the Split point set-
ting (see p. 32).

(3) When you are done, either press the [EXIT]

button to return to the main page, or one of
the other fields in the right column to set
those parameters as well.

Note: The [Vocal≈Effect] and [Equalizer] fields allow you
to jump to the effects or tone controls.

●If you press the [Edit] field…

…the display looks as follows:

• Use the [PREV] and [NEXT] buttons to select the

parameter you wish to edit, and set the desired
value with the [VALUE] dial.
Parameter fields can also be selected by press-
ing them.

Here’s what the parameters mean:

■ Gender: Allows you to change the timbre of the
part. Negative values produce a “masculine” effect,
positive values add “feminine” qualities.
■ Portamento Time & [Portamento]: See page 25.
■ Vibrato Rate, Depth, Rise Time, Delay Time:
These are the same parameters as for the Voice-FX
part. See therefore page 62. This time, however, they
apply to the Auto Tune part.

Note: The [Vibrato] indicator icon must be white for the
Vibrato effect to be noticeable.

• Press [EXIT] (or [Back≈to≈A-Tune]) to leave this

page.

●If you press the [Equalizer] field…

…the Vocal Equalizer page appears. It contains a
simple equalizer for the Voice-FX, Auto Tune
and Singer parts. See above.
