because it falls within the window. If the window was less than 80 cents, no correc-
tion would take place. Your input pitch must fall within the window around one of
the supplied correction notes if it is to be corrected at all. This allows you to natu-
rally inflect your vocals and slide between notes while cleaning up the pitches as
you get fairly close to them. A setting of 100 cents or larger will cause correction to
be on continuously when using the scale C-Major, as 200 cents is the largest inter-
val between any two notes.
EDIT 2 knob: A TTACK . Once the target correction pitch has been identified by VoiceLive, it begins
to shift the pitch of your vocal at a rate determined by this parameter. A setting of
99 gives the fastest setting which instantaneously pulls your vocal in-tune, an effect
that can be useful for some types of music. Settings between 16 and 40 give the
most natural results.
EDIT 3 knob: A MOUNT . Scales the amount of automatic correction applied to the input voice. The
range is 0% to 100%. However, 0% does not mean that the correction is turned off.
The amount of applied correction depends on how far out of tune the input note is.
This allows for a very musical way of correcting pitch. It corrects the large pitch
errors while preserving the natural micro variations around the target pitch. For
example:
With the amount set to 100%, a 10 cent flat input will be corrected by 10 cents and
a 50 cent flat input will be corrected by 50 cents.
With the amount set to 80%, a 10 cent flat input will be corrected by approximately
5 cents and a 50 cent flat input will be corrected by approximately 40 cents.
With the amount set to 0%, a 10 cent flat input will not be corrected and a 50 cent
flat input will be corrected by approximately 10 cents.
This screen shows the actual notes of the of current correction scale (Maj, Min1, Min2, Min3,
Chrom or Cus). It provides a chromatic list of notes beginning with the scale root. Below this list a
series of “o”s and “-”s indicating which notes are in the pitch correct scale and which are ignored.
“o” indicates that the note is in the scale and “-” indicates that the note is ignored. The scale may
be modified by moving the cursor to an “o” or “-” with EDIT 1 KNOB and turning the EDIT KNOB 2
to change its state. Modified (custom) scales are stored with presets.
EDIT 1 knob: Selects note.
EDIT 2 knob: Adds or removes note from the correction scale (selects either “o” or “-”)
