Usage Tips
•
DUO Evo is available in mono and stereo
versions and, depending on the capabilities of
your host program, a mono -> stereo version
(which in most cases is the preferred routing).
In the case of the stereo version, DUO Evo
processes only the left channel. DUO Evo is
dramatically more effective with the original
and doubled parts panned apart, so if at all
possible, try always to use it with stereo output.
•
For best performance, DUO Evo requires a
clean, pitched monophonic signal. If DUO Evo
can not reliably detect the pitch of the input,
either because of a noisy or effected signal or
because the input is not a single monophonic
voice, it will apply Vocal Timbre and Timing
variations only.
•
Experiment with various Pitch and Timing
settings. Different combinations can result in
distinctly different stylistic effects.
•
DUO Evo’s Vibrato function can be used by
itself to modify the vibrato depth on a recorded
track. If you have a track with too deep a
vibrato (or too shallow, although that’s a much
rarer problem), assign DUO Evo to the track
and set the mixer so that only the doubled
track is heard. Set Vocal Timbre to 0 and Pitch
and Timing to their minimum values. While
listening to the track, adjust the Vibrato slider
to reduce or expand the vibrato depth as
desired. Notice that while you are modifying
the vibrato depth, the expressive contour
of the singer’s original vibrato is retained.
