VEGA
61
F8 Pitch Shift: This only affects the signal of the microphone on input Mic 1 and is used to transpose the notes sung in the micro-
phone in steps of semitones. When the values are excessive the sound of the voice is distorted. This effect is one of
the Vocalizer features. The value is increased or decreased using the VALUE +/- push buttons which, if pressed
together at the same time, reset the value.
F9 Effects: When enabled (On), the effects will be applied to the microphone input, whereas when set to Dry no Reverb effect is
sent to the microphone input. If Dry On Stop is selected, the effects will be applied on the microphone signal only
when the Arranger or a Midi file is being played. After the Arranger and the Midi file have stopped playing, the VEGA
disables the effects on the microphone and re-enables them as soon as the Arranger or the Midi file starts playing
again. Dry On Stop solves an important problem the musician has to cope with: the need to exclude the effects from
the microphone signal when he talks to the public (e.g. when introducing the next song).
F10 Active/Inactive: This enables or disables the microphone inputs. If they are connected but not being used, it is a good rule to disable
the inputs to avoid disturbing noises.
