Using The Sp-202 As A Voice Effector - Boss Dr.Sample SP-202 Owner's Manual

15
If
you wish to use an external microphone, connect it to
the MIC jack. The external microphone will automatical-
ly take priority over the internal microphone.
It
is not possible to use two or more FILTER 1 /2 or RING
effects simultaneously.
If
you press another pad while the SOURCE pad is
lit,
the sound of the microphone may be interrupted. Also,
pressing the SOURCE pad while the sound of a pad 1-8
is playing may cause the sound of pads 1-8 to be inter-
rupted. This can occur when the maximum polyphony is
exceeded. For details refer to page 19 "Maximum
polyphony and note priority."
When the SOURCE SELECT switch is in the LINE posi-
tion, an effect can be applied to the audio from the line
input.
If the TRIGGER/GATE button has been pressed to make
TRIGGER light, pressing a pad will alternate between
starting the sound (pad lit) and stopping the sound (pad
dark), so that the sample will continue to sound while
the pad is lit. For details refer to page 29 "Make the
sound continue playing even if you release the pad."
If
distortion occurs because the input level is too high, or
noise is a problem because the input level is too low, you
can adjust the input level according to
"If
noise
is
a prob-
lem" on page 34.
6.
Release the SOURCE pad, and the sound from the
microphone will no longer be heard.
S.
Press the RING MOD button once again to make
it go dark, and the effect will no longer apply.
In the same way, go ahead and try FILTER 1 and 2.
4. Press the RING MOD button to make it light.
The ring modulator will apply to the sound from the
microphone, producing an effect as if a robot were
speaking. You can rotate the CONTROL knob to adjust
the depth of the effect.
Howling could be produced depending on the location
of microphones relative to speakers. This can be reme-
died by:
l.
Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from
speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
3.
Raise the SP-202's VOLUME appropriately, and
speak into the microphone while you gradually
raise the volume of your amp or monitor speaker.
2.
Press the SOURCE pad. (The pad will light.)
With the factory settings, the sound will
be
heard only
while you continue pressing the pad.
1.
Set the SOURCE MIX switch OFF, the SOURCE
SELECT switch to MIC, and turn the power
switch ON.

The SP-202 lets you apply the FILTER 1/2 and RING MOD
(ring modulator) effects to an external input.
In this section, let's apply the ring modulator to a voice,
making it sound like a robot.
