RELEASE – this fader affects the VOCODER,
(23)
HUMAN VOICE, and STRINGS. It adjusts the
time for the played note to decay from
its maximum volume. Position 0 gives no
delay, so the sound will turn of immediately
following the key release.
Strings Section
This section allows the keyboard to play a simulation
of strings. The level is adjusted using the STRINGS
fader in the BALANCE section.
ATTACK – adjusts the time it takes for the
(24)
played note in the STRINGS section to reach its
maximum volume.
TONE – adjusts the tone of the
(25)
STRINGS section.
LOWER – select the lower section of the
(26)
keyboard to play the STRINGS simulation.
UPPER – select the upper section of the
(27)
keyboard to play the STRINGS.
Lower Left Controls
HIGH/LOW – this affects the keyboard
(28)
by moving it up (HIGH) or down (LOW)
one octave.
TUNE – adjusts the pitch up or down.
(29)
VOLUME – adjusts the volume level of the
(30)
rear panel main outputs. It does not affect
the headphone output. Turn this to minimum
before turning on the unit, and then bring up
to a comfortable listening level.
Pitch Shift Section
AUTO – when notes are played, they will
(31)
automatically increase in pitch. Use the TIME
and PITCH SET knobs to control timing and
range of the pitch shift.
OFF – when notes are played, they will not
automatically increase in pitch unless an
external pedal is pressed.
MANUAL – when notes are played, the pitch
can be shifted manually using the DOWN/
NORMAL fader.
DOWN/NORMAL – use this horizontal fader
(32)
to manually shift the pitch when the adjacent
switch is set to MANUAL. The pitch shift range
is set by the PITCH SET knob.
PITCH SET – adjusts the starting pitch of the
(33)
pitch shift.
H position: no pitch shift occurs.
L position: maximum pitch shift occurs.
TIME – adjusts the time it takes for the
(34)
pitch shift to occur. It has no effect in
MANUAL mode.
Rear Panel
POWER SWITCH – turn this switch on after
(35)
all connections have been made. The power
switch should be readily accessible during
operation.
AC INPUT – connect to an AC mains outlet
(36)
capable of supplying 100 to 240 VAC,
50/60 Hz. Use only the supplied power cord.
VENTILATION – these ventilation slots allow
(37)
air low for cooling the internal circuits. Do not
cover any of these slots.
MICROPHONE XLR Input – connect to
(38)
a microphone for use with the VOCODER.
Microphones that require phantom power
should not be used. Use only one microphone
input at a time.
MICROPHONE TRS Input – connect to a
(39)
microphone for use with the VOCODER.
PHONES OUTPUT – connect to a pair of
(40)
stereo headphones. Make sure the top panel
PHONES level knob (4) is turned down before
putting on headphones, and then bring up to
a safe listening level.
EXTERNAL SYNTH INPUT – this input allows
(41)
connection of the line-level audio output
from an external device such as a synthesizer.
The input level is adjusted using the top panel
EXT SYNTH (5) input level fader.
VOCODER HOLD – connect a standard
(42)
footswitch here so you can easily engage or
disengage the VOCODER.
PITCH SHIFT – connect a standard footswitch
(43)
here so you can turn on or of the pitch shift
effect. Make sure the pitch shift switch (31) is
set to OFF (EXT CONTROL).
L/M/H SWITCH – adjusts the output level
(44)
from Low, Medium, or High, to best match
your system. For example, Low can be used
when connecting to a mixer channel input,
High used for a line-level input, and Medium
used if a lower level is better.
MONO OUTPUT – this output is used to
(45)
connect to a single amplifier, powered
speaker, or mixer channel for example. The
two internal channels of the VOCODER VC340
are summed together.
Quick Start Guide
STEREO OUTPUT – if you want to connect the
(46)
VOCODER VC340 to a stereo system, such as
a 2-channel amplifier, 2 powered speakers,
or 2 mixer channels, then use this output and
the Mono Output.
MIDI Section
MIDI IN – this 5-pin DIN jack receives MIDI
(47)
data from an external source such as a MIDI
keyboard, an external hardware sequencer, a
computer equipped with a MIDI interface, etc.
MIDI THRU – this is used to pass through
(48)
MIDI data received at the MIDI INPUT.
MIDI OUT – this 5-pin DIN jack sends MIDI
(49)
data generated by the VOCODER VC340
to other MIDI devices such as an external
synthesizer or a computer equipped with a
MIDI interface, etc.
USB PORT – This USB type B jack allows
(50)
connection to a computer. The VOCODER
VC340 will show up as a class-compliant
USB MIDI device, capable of supporting MIDI
in and out.
USB MIDI IN – accepts incoming MIDI data
from an application.
USB MIDI OUT – sends MIDI data to
an application.
