Adjusting the Dynamics (Dynamics)
The way in which the Vocal Designer/Vocoder dynamics will respond to changes in the microphone input volume can be ad-
justed over a range of seven levels. Changes you make in this value are stored in the unit.
Decreasing the dynamics effect means that the Vocal Designer/Vocoder will be able to produce a wide range of sounds from
loud to soft, giving you more expressive range. However, this will require you to accurately control the volume of your voice as
you sing into the microphone.
Increasing the dynamics effect means that the Vocal Designer/Vocoder sound will vary less in volume, but this will make it easier
for you to sing, since a stable volume will be obtained even if your voice increases or decreases in volume.
