An overview of V-Producer
V-Producer is software that controls a sound module (VariOS).
It reads wave files stored on your computer and sends them to the VariOS. At the same time, it also
displays the files on the screen as samples. Simply by placing samples on a screen that corresponds to
the six "parts" of the VariOS, you can automatically control the VariOS, making it sound accordingly.
This lets you easily create a song using multiple tracks on the VariOS.
Since the VariOS uses Vari Phrase technology, there is no need for you to make time-consuming
adjustments to the size of the samples. You can also use your MIDI keyboard to play samples in real
time and record them. In addition, you can make use of a variety of editing features, which allow you
to edit the Time, Pitch, Formant, as well as perform transpositions.
The following diagram shows the actual workflow.
