Tips and tricks for working
with the HardTune effect
When you want the "HardTune" sound, choose
the "Pop" style.
It takes some practice to sing the right way
and get the most out of HardTune. Practice
sliding and gliding from note to note, in order
to emphasize the jumps in pitch provided by
the "Pop" setting. After a while, you will be
able to enhance the effect as you sing.
When you are using HardTune with a wedge
monitor or in-ear monitors (IEMs), it's totally
normal to hear some "phasing" type sounds
as your natural voice interacts with the cor-
rected voice output from VL3X.
Check out this "Craig's Corner" video for more
about phasing:

If you would like subtle correction that still re-
spects any key/scale you have set for Harmo-
ny, try the "Correct Natural" style.
To emulate some of the effects used on the
Beatles recordings, try the "Gender Bender"
style and turn the Gender control down a few
clicks to slightly lower the sound of your voice.
Any time the HardTune effect is active, Glob-
al Pitch Correction settings in the Setup
menu are temporarily overwritten. When the
HardTune effect is turned off, any settings
from Global Pitch Correction will reactivate.
