180 Effects
Vocoder
139: Early Reflections
This early reflection effect has more precise early reflections
with twice the maximum length of a normal-size effect (See
“Early Reflections” on page 153.). You can create a very smooth
and dense sound.
Vocoder
The Vocoder can only be assigned to the FX B - Master 2 proces-
sor (usually, the modulating effect for the keyboard tracks).
When this effect is selected, the microphone input no longer
goes to the Voice Processor, but is routed to this FX processor.
140: Vocoder
This effect applies the timbral character of a different signal (the
modulator) to the input signal (the carrier).
A common use of this effect is to produce the sound of various
instruments by inputting a voice to the Modulator via a micro-
phone. A special effect is also achieved by using rhythm or effect
sounds. Strings or distortion guitar sounds with a lot of harmon-
ics are suitable as Carrier signals.
