Vocal
This is the Vocal stretch type used for audio in the Reason sequencer, i.e. a high-quality stretch algorithm suitable for
monophonic vocal audio material.
With the Vocal stretch type selected, there are two additional controls present:
D Turn the Formant knob to change the formant of the sample/slices.
Turning this up will be like creating a smaller “body” for the sound, and turning it down will be like creating a larger
body. If you are using a vocal sample, changing the Formant would be like changing the character from “adult” to
“child” like.
D Click the Fixed Pitch button to “auto-tune” the sample/slices to the currently played (note) pitch.
This is really cool for creating processed vocals that you could pitch from the keyboard.
Granular
This is a “vintage” type of digital pitch shift/stretch method, where grains of the sample are being looped and cross-
faded.
The Granular stretch type utilizes playback of a series of snippets of audio data - grains - “extracted” from the sample.
The grains could be of a selectable length and overlap. The grains could then be played back in a number different
ways - with or without crossfades between the grains.
