Quick Start Tutorial
Here you find a quick start for working with Lector:
•
Load the Lector plug-in in an insert slot of any audio
or instrument track of your host application which
contains a suited signal as speech, vocals or drums.
• Start the playback of your host application and turn
the Speech dial in Lector until you hear the original
signal.
• Create a MIDI track and route the output directly to
Lector.
• Activate the Lector synthesizer and turn the Carrier
dial. While playing MIDI notes via a connected MIDI
master keyboard or recorded MIDI events you should
hear the Lector synthesizer. If you don´t have a MIDI
keyboard you can activate the Latch mode to trigger
a permanent signal of the Lector synthesizer.
• Turn down the Speech and also the Carrier dial.
Instead turn up the Vocoder dial. Start the playback
of your host application and play some MIDI notes.
You should now hear the typical Vocoder sounds.
• If you have loaded the VST3 or the AU version of
Lector you can activate the sidechain function of
your host application as also as in Lector to route a
desired signal as Carrier into Lector.
• If your are using the VST 2.4 plug-in you can load the
additional Lector Carrier Plug-in as an insert effect in
any desired channel to route this signal as Carrier to
Lector.

Please read the corresponding manual of your host
application how to to load insert effects and how to
