Effect Guide

156: Vocoder

This effect applies the timbral character of a one signal (the
modulator) to a second signal (the carrier).
On the M50, an external source such as a mic cannot be used
as the modulator source, but you can create unique effects
by using an internal sound source as the modulator. Try
selecting voice-type sounds, rhythms, or sound effects as the
modulator. The most suitable choices for the carrier are
sounds that contain a large number of overtones, such as
strings or distorted guitar. For details on how to make
settings, refer to "Example: Vocoder (Combination)" on
page 274.

By offsetting the Carrier filter, you can adjust the height of
the frequency range to which the vocoder effect is applied.
The tonal quality will change significantly.
g: Noise Level
This parameter enables you to mix white noise with the
Carrier.
h: Modulator High Mix
This parameter sets the high-range output level of the
modulator sound. If the modulator is a human voice, it will
make the words more clear.

157: OD/HyperGain Wah
(Overdrive/Hyper Gain Wah)
This distortion effect has two modes: overdrive and hyper-
gain that produces a strong distortion. A higher high-gain
setting is required for this effect relative to a normal-size
effect.
