Tutorial 3: Auto-Motion Vocal
Pattern Generation
The best way to become familiar with Auto-
Motion is simply to play around with it. To get
started:
1. Load the “hidin” files from Tutorial 1 and
set the controls as instructed in that
tutorial.
2. Set your host’s tempo to 132 BPM and set
the Auto-Motion tempo to “Sync to Host”
and “1/16.”
3. Set the Auto-Motion Pattern Style to Hard
EFX.
4. Select the pattern “Half Steps.”
5. Start playing the project. Click and hold
the Trigger button at the beginning of the
words “falling apart” at the end of the
second phrase. Hold the button through
these words and then release it.
6. Click and hold the Trigger button again at
the beginning of measure 10 (in the middle
of the phrase “you’re in the dark”). Release
it at the end of the phrase.
7. Repeat again at the beginning of measure
16 (at the beginning of the phrase “nothing
at all”).
8. Finally, repeat again at the beginning of
measure 20 (at the beginning of the phrase
“set up to fall”).
9. Repeat all of the above using a dierent
pattern (e.g., try “Circular Slur” for a bit
more dramatic eect or “Down 4 Up 1” for
some serious wackiness).
Continue to experiment with dierent
patterns, dierent note divisions, and dierent
combinations of Eect Type and Pattern Type
settings.
Most of all, have fun.
