Changing the Character of a Voice
(Voice Changer)

voice,” “from a male to a female voice,” or “robot voice.”
* This only works on the input audio from the AUDIO IN 1, 2 jacks.

Menu item Explanation
PITCH
Adjusts the pitch of the voice in semitone steps. A setting
of “0” is the original pitch.
FORMANT
Adjusts the character (formant) of the voice. Settings
in the negative (–) direction produce a more masculine
vocal character, and settings in the positive (+) direction
produce a more feminine vocal character. A setting of “0”
is the original voice.
ROBOT
When this is “ON,” the voice is held at a fixed pitch, creating
a mechanical robot-like impression.
MIX
Adjusts the balance between the unprocessed voice (0)
and the voice processed by the effect (100).

press the [VALUE] knob.
