Playing the Vocal Designer Using Only the Mic rophone

Normally, Vocal Designer will not sound unless you play the keyboard. However, by using the Auto Note
function, you can make Vocal Designer produce sound without your having to play the keyboard; i.e., all

via the microphone, and automatically sound notes for that pitch.
When you press the [AUTO NOTE] button, the button will light and
the Auto Note function will turn on.
