QUICK STARTPresets that create automaticdoublingPresets 41-50You can use these to recreate the lush thickness ofvoices singing in unison along with your dry voice.Some presets feature multiple harmony voices, othersuse the model to create a unique character to singalong with you and at least one uses the μMod effectto create the doubling illusion.Though some presets display a key and scale, no keyand scale adjustment or MIDI input is required to enjoythem.Presets that offer Pitch CorrectionPresets 51 to 56You can explore pitch correction with this group ofpresets.You should be aware that, when set optimally,the effect of pitch correction is subtle compared to theother effects in VoiceWorksPlus especially when youare singing through the product (as opposed to playingback a recorded track).To be effective, pitch correction needs key and scale tobe set so that it matches your song. Like the Scaleharmony presets, the default setting for these is Amajor.To change the key and scale of pitch correction,press the EDIT button and scroll to menu C0 with theData Wheel.Several presets are devoted to pairing pitch correctionwith the Chord, Notes and Scale harmony modes.Note that the harmony information shown on thepreset main screen e.g. “H:Scale A Major2”, does notreflect the pitch correction key and scale settings. Toview the key and scale of the pitch correction in one ofthese presets, briefly bypass the Harmony/Modeleffects by pressing the Harmony/Model button. Onceyou’ve learned the correction information, you can reactivatethe Harmony/Model effects.There is one preset that uses a chromatic scale inwhich all notes are valid and no key or scale isrequired.Presets that feature the TransducerPresets 71 to 80The presets in these group send your voice throughthe Transducer to provide interesting distortion,megaphone and telephone effects. Care must be takenwhen using this effect because it can cause feedbacksimply because of the nature of distortion which tendsto raise the average level of the signal.
