TASCAM TA-1VP
33
If you want both the main and double track to appear at
the Main Output, use the Data Knob to select the amount
of the double track you want in the mix. The range is
from 1% (double track barely audible), to 50% (main and
double track appear at the same volume).
If you want to send the main and double track to separate
outputs, turn the Data Knob counterclockwise until the
following screen appears (Stereo is the default setting):
Double Track
Stereo
With this setting, the main track appears at the Main
Output and the double track appears at the Double Track
Output.
How Double Track works ª
The Double Track functions works a bit differently
depending upon whether or not you are using the
TA-1VP’s Auto-Tune module for your main track. Here’s
how:
If the Auto-tune module is active on your main track •
(i.e., its ON button is lit), the double track will be the
non-pitch corrected version of your track.
If the Auto-tune module is not active on your main
•
track (i.e., its ON button is not lit), the double track
will be generated by passing the main track through
the Auto-Tune function using the parameters set in
the Auto-tune module. Consequently, in this case it is
important to select an appropriate scale, speed, and
detune value for the Auto-Tune module to produce the
desired double track effect. (On the other hand, some
unlikely scale note choices or Speed settings might
produce some very interesting — if untraditional —
effects.)
Double Track ON Button ª
When this button is lit, the Double Track function is active.
When it is not lit, the module is bypassed. Pressing the
button toggles its state. The Double Track On/Off function
can also be controlled by MIDI and/or by a footswitch.
Output/Main Bypass Page ª
Pressing the OUT GAIN button brings up this page:
Main Bypass: OFF
Output Gain: +12 dB
Setting Main Bypass to ON causes the input signal to be
passed through the TA-1VP with no processing by any
of the modules. While Main Bypass is engaged, no other
controls will respond until bypass is disengaged.
NOTE
Main Bypass can also be engaged by the footswitch.
Engaging bypass by the footswitch will cause the Output/
Main Bypass Page to be displayed and, as above, no other
controls will respond until bypass is disengaged.
The Output Gain control is used to fine-tune the TA-1VP’s
output level. Its range is –30 dB to +24 dB. (The default
setting is 0 dB.)
Output Meter ª
The Output Meter displays the level of the signal output
by the TA-1VP.
