Recording a new Stutter Sample

For even faster re-recording of the stutter sample, double-click the style corner button and this will instantly

clear the sample and arm the Stutter eect to record a new sample.

XFX Style: Chopper

There are two Chopper styles: Mono Chopper and

Stereo Chopper. At full depth, Mono will gate the level of the

audio, while Stereo will alternate (ping-pong) the audio between

Perform-VE’s left and right stereo outputs. Both Chopper styles

are beat-synchronized, of course!

Chopper Mod 1: Division

Chopper Mod 1 controls the size of the Chopper’s rhythmic division in real time.

Chopper Mod 2: Depth

Chopper Mod 2 changes the depth of the volume modulation (gating), relative to

your Lead vocal.

On the ring, Level is indicated from one up to all LEDs lit up in Yellow.

Range: 0 to 100%

XFX Style: Ring Mod

The Ring Modulator multiplies your lead vocal with an internally-generated sine wave to create a classic

‘Dalek from Doctor Who’ sound.

At full Ring Mod depth, you’ll be ready to visit planet Skaro, but subtle amounts can also work wonders

on a vocoder voice to bring out an old-school Electric Cylon Orchestra sound for a retro sci- clip or two.

Robots and aliens aside, a bit of Ring Mod will give any signal a gritty electronic characteristic that

follows the pitch or melody of the input signal. It’s very useful!
