    3  Introducing Articulator   What is Articulator?  Articulator is a digital version of the classic talkbox, perfect for talking guitars, singing  synths, and a wide range of special effects.     If you’ve ever seen a guitarist with a plastic tube in their mouth and a guitar that sounds ...
  • Page 5: Control Signal And Audio Signal

    Articulator uses two different audio sources to create the talkbox effect: a Control  Signal and an Audio Signal.    The ​ C ontrol Signal ​ i s usually a voice. Articulator extracts its formant and amplitude  envelopes and applies them to the Audio Signal to create a talkbox effect.    ...

    5  Quick Start  Follow these steps to get started with Articulator     Route Audio to Articulator  Place Articulator on a track that contains your ​ A udio Signal​ (usually an instrument, like a  guitar or a synth).     Then route the ​...
  • Page 7: Adjust The Amplitude Modulation

      Contents 6    Adjust the Amplitude Modulation  Experiment with the ​ E nvelope Amount​ ​ c ontrol to change the amount of amplitude  modulation applied to the Audio Signal by the Control Signal.    Add Some EQ  Use the ​ E Q Controls​...
  • Page 8: Controls

    Audio Signal Input Meter    The ​ A udio Signal Input Meter ​ s hows the level of the Audio Signal  before any processing by Articulator. The Audio Signal input  comes from the track that Articulator is instantiated on.   ...
  • Page 9: Audio Level

      Sidechain Input LED    The ​ S idechain Input LED ​ s hows when a sidechain connection has been  made to Articulator. The LED is enabled when audio is sent to Articulator  via sidechain input.     Audio Level   ...
  • Page 10: Stereo Noise

    The ​ S tereo Noise​ button lets you decouple the noise from the left and right  channels to create a stereo breathiness effect.     Note:​ Stereo Noise is only available when Articulator is placed on a stereo track.  Formant Extraction Controls   ...
  • Page 11: Formant Modulation Controls

      Contents 10               Formant Modulation Controls    The ​ F ormant Modulation Controls​ let you modify the  formants extracted from the Control Signal by adjusting the  shape of a digital model of the human throat.   The modified formants are then applied to the Audio Signal. ...
  • Page 12: Amplitude Modulation Controls

      Contents 11      Amplitude Modulation Controls  Envelope Amount    The ​ E nvelope Amount ​ c ontrol sets the amount of amplitude  modulation applied to the Audio Signal by the Control Signal.    When Envelope Amount is set to 0, the Control Signal’s amplitude  envelope has no effect on the Audio Signal.
  • Page 13: Gain

      Contents 12        Q    The ​ Q ​ control lets you adjust the width of the frequency band to be boosted or  cut. Low Q values result in a wide bandwidth, and high values result in a  narrow bandwidth. ...
  • Page 14: Output Controls

      Contents 13  Output Controls    The ​ O utput Controls​ let you monitor and adjust the output levels and  pan positions of both the processed Audio Signal and the Control Signal.                   ...
  • Page 15: Clip Indicators

    The Audio Signal and Control Signal each have a​ Pan Slider​ so you can  set the stereo position of each signal independently.    Note:​ the Pan Sliders are only available when Articulator is placed on a stereo or  mono-to-stereo track.   ...
