V-Vocal clips (Producer and Studio only)
V-Vocal is a vocal processor that integrates Roland’s VariPhrase technology into SONAR. Designed
for monophonic sounds, especially vocals, V-Vocal does pitch correction on notes and phrases,
edits formants, adds vibrato if you want, and can also correct timing.
Access V-Vocal by selecting audio data, and then inserting an instance of V-Vocal. This creates a
monophonic V-Vocal clip, which means that the selected audio data is copied to create the V-Vocal
clip, while the original audio data is muted and left unchanged.
The following procedures explain how to manage V-Vocal clips. For information about using
V-Vocal, see “Using V-Vocal (Producer and Studio only)” on page 900.
To create a V-Vocal clip
1. Select the audio data you want to use.
2. Use the Track view V-Vocal > Create V-Vocal Clip command, or right-click the clip and choose
V-Vocal > Create V-Vocal Clip from the Clips pane pop-up menu.
Note: For any of the VST properties to take effect, the plug-in must be re-instantiated. The
simplest way to do that is to delete the plug-in from the effects bin or Synth Rack, then press
CTRL+Z to undo.
