Mic Panel - Korg Pa800 User Manual

Mic panel

Touch the Mic tab to select this panel. This is where you can set
the various Voice Processor options.
Mic On/Off Harmony On/Off
Voice Processor Preset
Mic On/Off
Use this switch to mute/unmute the microphone. This is the
same as the MIC/IN Play/Mute icon in the Main page (see
"Track status icons" on page 89).
Note: Any line signal entering the Audio Inputs, and not being sent
to the Voice Processor, is not affected.
Harmony On/Off
Turns the Harmony module on/off.
Talk On/Off
Use this switch to soften all music generated by the Pa800, and
speak in the microphone at normal level. This is useful to
address your audience, while automatically lowering the back-
ground music volume.
While this switch is turned on, all Voice Processor
modules are momentarily turned off, except for
Reverb, whose level is simply reduced to avoid los-
ing clarity on the voice. Setting for the Talk func-
tion can be programmed on the Talk page (see
"Voice Processor Setup: Talk" on page 234).
Depress this switch to return to the original set-
tings.
Note: When you deactivate the Talk function, the Voice Processor
Preset is recalled. Any unsaved change to the Preset will be lost.
VP Preset
Use this pop-up menu to select one of the available Voice Proces-
sor Presets. Selecting a Preset may change all the above parame-
ters, as well as other Voice Processor parameters. Presets can be
freely edited (see "Voice Processor Preset: Preset" on page 235).
Talk On/Off
VP lock icon
This lock avoids changing the Voice Processor Preset when
selecting a different Performance, STS or SongBook entry. This
is useful if you want to use the same Preset while selecting differ-
ent Performances, STSs or SongBook entries.
This lock is reset when turning the instrument off, unless you
write Global settings to memory (see "Write Global - Global
Setup dialog box" on page 231).
For more information on parameter locks, see "General Con-
trols: Lock" on page 218.
FX Level
Use this control to set the overall effect level on the voice. This is
the same as the "FX Level knob" found in the Voice Processor
Preset > Effects page of the Global mode (see page 239). This
parameter is saved in the Voice Processor Preset.
VPp
EQ Settings
Use these controls to set a global, three-band equalization
applied to the voice. This is useful to fine-tune your voice to the
Tlk
acoustic environment of the room.
This is the same as the EQ controls found in the Voice Processor
Setup > Dynamics/EQ page of the Global mode (see page 95).
