VOICEMODELING EDIT PARAMETERS
BREATH PARAMETERS
The Breath styles add breathiness to the vocal.
This varies from a whisper, all the way to a
rough, raspy sound, such as is found in hard
rock and ‘alternative’ rock music.
Some styles are sensitive to the dynamics of
the incoming vocal, meaning that they can be
‘played’ by varying the level of what is sung into
Voice One. This is also known as ‘self control’.
BRE Amount
The amount of breath effect incorporated into
the signal.
BRE Style
A list of base Breath types, each with unique
characteristics.
Note: When using the whisper effects, the
shift and correct blocks may seem to not be
working. What's actually happening is there is
no pitch to shift or correct to in whisper mode.
BRE Harm’X
Singing with breath implies opening the vocal
folds more, and thus changing the harmonic
structure: your voice sounds more mellow when
you make it breathy. This parameter controls
how much the harmonics are altered when
adding breath to the voice. At 0% the
harmonics are not altered, at 100% the
harmonic shaping is at its maximum.
GROWL PARAMETERS
Growl in VoiceModeling mimics friction activity
between the larynx and epiglottis regions of the
vocal tract. This is a ‘character’ phenomenon
used in high energy rock, blues or old soul
music for example.
The Growl effect also models the changes in
the vocal tract shape that growling requires,
altering the vocal resonance characteristics.
Some styles are sensitive to the dynamics of
the incoming vocal, meaning that the effect can
be controlled by the volume of what is sung into
Voice One. This is also know as self-control.
GRO Amount
Controls the level of Growl applied to the
signal.
GRO Style
A list of base Growl types, each with unique
characteristics.
RESONANCE PARAMETERS
Resonance styles allow you to take the
harmonic content that forms the identity of the
incoming voice and change the content’s
positioning to yield a new character to the
sound. Some styles change the voice to a
heavier, darker chest resonance, while others
lighten the sound to more of a head and throat
resonance. Some styles also change the voice
in a more complex way that depends on the
input voice. So, try them with the voice you
intend to process.
RES Amount
Controls the amount of formant resonance
change to the incoming voice.
RES Style
A list of base Resonance types, each with
unique characteristics.
RES Tract
Alters the apparent vocal tract length,
facilitating a gender change to the input voice.
