Quick Guide 3 Press [EDIT] [COMMON] [F6] EFFECT [SF1] CONNECT, then set the "InsEF Connect" parameter to "vocoder." NOTE The "InsEF Connect" parameter is automatically set to "vocoder" if you select a Voice from the Vocoder Category in step 2. Creating an original Song This instrument features a built-in multi Track sequencer for recording your keyboard performance as MIDI data. This function by itself is enough to create full, complex multiinstrument arrangements and complete Songs. Terminology 4 From the [SF2] VOCODER display, set the Vocoder related parameters if necessary. Speak or sing into the microphone while pressing the note(s) to generate the machine-like Vocoder sound. Set the related parameters as desired while listening to the Vocoder sound. For details about each parameter, see the "Reference Manual" PDF document. 5 Press the [STORE] button to call up the Store display then store the settings as a User Voice. Song and Pattern See page 36. Track This is a memory location on the sequencer where your musical performances (made up of MIDI events) are stored. The MOXF6/MOXF8 provides 16 Tracks, which correspond to the 16 Parts of the Mixing. Mixing This is a program in which multiple Voices are assigned to Parts for multi-timbral play in the Song and Pattern modes. Each Mixing can contain up to 16 parts and a separate Mixing can be created for each Song. Realtime Recording With Realtime recording, the instrument functions in the same way as a MD recorder, recording the performance data as it is played. This allows you to capture all the nuances of an actual performance. Realtime Record features three available methods: Replace, Overdub and Punch In/Out. Replace lets you overwrite an already recorded Track with new data. Overdub lets you add more data to a Track that already contains data. Punch In/Out lets you re-record only over a specific area of the Track. Step Recording With Step recording, you can compose your performance by "writing" it down one event at a time. This is a non-realtime, step recording method - similar to writing music notation onto paper. 40 MOXF6/MOXF8 Owner's Manual
