Finally, the effects you've heard on chart topping
tracks from artists pushing the envelope of vocal sounds are available
in a pedal. VoiceTone Synth brings together a collection of exotic and
current sonic mayhem including jagged HardTune effects, a MassiveBand
Vocoder with voice-controlled synth and vocal distortion and megaphone
effects. Now vocalists and anyone looking to add a modern edge to their
live performances and studio productions can dial-in these effects
instantly with the press of a footswitch.
HardTune
The jagged, stair-stepped vocal sound of key-based hard tuning is
everywhere in contemporary R&B, Hip Hop and Electronica. This
feature has eluded the majority of performing musicians until VoiceTone
Synth came along. Now musicians can produce this effect live by simply
recalling a preset and hitting the 'On' button. Easy key input methods
include auto-instrument sensing or pushbuttons with a clear display of
the current key. Other features of the HardTune effect include dry
voice mixing, octave shift and character modification.
Vocoder
The vocoder in VoiceTone Synth is called 'Massive-Band' for a reason.
It effectively scales resolution from ultra-clearly-enunciated Robot
voices to the sound of the classic, analog low-band-count vocoders we
all know and love. The benefit is that, while typical vocoders require
a lot of pre-processing like distortion and EQ to hear the effect
properly, with the VoiceTone Synth vocoder effect you can input signals
such as clean acoustic guitar and vocode perfectly for sounds that
until now have been impossible to achieve.
Voice-controlled Synth
The Vocoder also features a voice-controlled synth mode—considered by
many as the Holy Grail for vocoding. Prior to VoiceTone Synth, vocoding
required your voice (the exciter), and an instrument input (the
carrier) to make cool vocoded sounds. Of course VoiceTone Synth
supports the dual input method, but for artists who don't have another
instrument or don't play one, VoiceTone Synth can generate a synth part
directly from your vocal and vocode that. The result? Generated vocoder
parts with one input: your voice.
