V-Vocal Clips
V-Vocal is a vocal processor that integrates Roland’s VariPhrase technology into SONAR Producer.
Designed for monophonic sounds, especially vocals, V-Vocal does pitch correction on notes and
phrases, edits formants, adds vibrato if you want, and can also correct timing.
Access V-Vocal by selecting audio data, and then inserting an instance of V-Vocal. This creates a
monophonic V-Vocal clip, which means that the selected audio data is copied to create the V-Vocal
clip, while the original audio data is muted and left unchanged.
The following procedures explain how to manage V-Vocal clips. For information about using
V-Vocal, see “Using V-Vocal” on page 642.
To Create a V-Vocal Clip
1. Select the audio data you want to use.
2. Use the Edit > Create V-Vocal Region command, or right-click the clip and choose V-Vocal >
Create V-Vocal Clip from the Clips pane pop-up menu.
SONAR copies the selected audio data, inserts an instance of V-Vocal on the copied data, and
displays the new V-Vocal clip (the copied audio data that contains an instance of V-Vocal) where the
selected audio data was, and opens the V-Vocal interface. The V-Vocal icon appears
on the V-Vocal clip. The original audio data is muted. No track data is moved or otherwise modified
by creating a V-Vocal clip. You can drag the V-Vocal clip away from the original audio data if you
want.
To Open a V-Vocal Interface
If the V-Vocal interface of the clip you want to edit is not open, right-click the V-Vocal clip and
choose V-Vocal > V-Vocal Editor from the Clips pane pop-up menu. You can also double-click
the V-Vocal clip, or create your own key binding to launch V-Vocal.
To Move, Edit, or Copy a V-Vocal Clip
Use standard editing commands (nudge, drag-and-drop, slip-edit, etc.) to move, edit, or copy the
clip. When you move a V-Vocal clip, the original audio clip is revealed underneath it. You can
Note: For any of the VST properties to take effect, the plug-in must be re-instantiated. The
simplest way to do that is to delete the plug-in from the FX bin or Synth Rack, then press
CTRL+Z to undo.
