2.3.1.2. MIDI Settings
MIDI Devices Choose the MIDI input from your computer's MIDI interface. Unlike audio, you
can choose several MIDI inputs (for example, a keyboard and a separate control surface). In
stand-alone mode, Vocoder V defaults to MIDI messages coming in on any channel number,
so there's no need to set a particular channel. However, you can choose a specific channel,
as described in chapter 10 on MIDI control.
Tempo Vocoder V can synchronize various parameters to tempo. In stand-alone mode,
choose a tempo that corresponds to the song tempo. When used as a plug-in, the tempo
follows the host tempo automatically.
2.4. Using Vocoder V as a Plug-In
Whether your DAW supports VST, AU, or AAX, different DAWs have different ways of
handling a plug-in like Vocoder V, because it has characteristics of both a virtual instrument
and a signal processor. Fortunately, Vocoder V knows if you're using a supported DAW.
In Vocoder V's Voice Input section, click the Help button for instructions on how to insert
Vocoder V in your specific DAW. You can also review the ways of inserting Vocoder V for
different DAWs in the Tutorial, "Learning the Instrument." Access tutorials by clicking on the
Gear icon in the interface's upper right.
