DG 90 - Digital Piano
63
F4 Octave: transposes the voices that have been added to the lead by +/- two octaves. When set on Automatic, the voices will
remain within the octave of the note that has been sung. Can be modified with the VALUE +/- buttons.
F5 Hold: this will be present only if the harmonisation mode is set on Keyboard Harmony; if activated, this function allows
you to store the notes recognised by the Vocalizer as you change from one chord to another.
F6 Effects:
this allows you to modify the effects settings, to apply the Vibrato and the Limiter, to modify the vocal sound and
to activate a number of modulations. The Reverb and the Delay are the general ones and are programmable. The
parameters are selected with the CURSOR +/- buttons and the value is entered with the VALUE +/- buttons. To go
back to the main page of Vocalizer Edit, press once more the F6 Effects function button.
The following describes the parameters in detail:
Reverb Level: Reverb quantity to be assigned to the voices generated by the Vocalizer
Delay Level: Delay quantity to be assigned to the voices generated by the Vocalizer
Vibrato Depth: Intensity of the Vibrato effect on the voices generated by the Vocalizer
Vibrato Rate: Vibrato effect speed
Vibrato Delay: Delay value of the starting of the Vibrato effect
Modulation: If activated (On), the Vibrato is controlled by the Modulation wheel
Pitch Bend: If activated (On), Pitch Bend effects can be achieved on the voices generated, acting on the rel-
evant wheel
Limiter: A particular effect allowing you to control the level of the input signal in order not to saturate the
DSP. This should always be left’ On’, especially if the singer has a powerful and dynamic voice.
Singer: Defines the sounds of the voices generated by the Vocalizer, with male and female options.
F7 Filter:
Pressing this function push button displays a number of parameters to control the three vocal formants for the
same number of voices generated, as well as the equalizer with three bands for the direct voice and for the vocal-
ized generated voices. The Vocalizer indeed works on three bands of formants, in order not to completely change
the timbre when changing it’s intonation. The formants theory is a very complex one, and substantially based on
the idea that the human voice is characterised by fixed frequencies for certain intonations, so modifying these you
obtain different timbres. The parameters are selected with the CURSOR +/- buttons and the value is entered with
the VALUE +/- buttons. To go back to the main page of Vocalizer, press once more the F7 Filter function button.
In the following the parameters are described in detail:
Formant 1, 2, 3: formant level for voices 1, 2, 3
Frequency 1, 2, 3: formant frequency for voices 1, 2, 3
Resonance 1, 2, 3: resonance of the single formant for voices 1, 2, 3
Low Band Direct, Vocalizer: Low band level of the equalizer for the direct voice and for those generated
by the Vocalizer
Mid Band Direct, Vocalizer: Mid band level of the equalizer for the direct voice and for those generated by
the Vocalizer
High Band Direct, Vocalizer: High band level of the equalizer for the direct voice and for those generated
by the Vocalizer.
Volume 1, 2, 3: Volume of the single voices added by the Vocalizer.
