Post by Goon »

I tried to use the vocoder, and cant get my vocal to vocode at all, I still hear the FA. I am using USB for midi & audio, I have no idea what Im doing wrong here. Folloing this video 100% but still doesnt work, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxLAiYPLqoI

Have just plugged headphones in and can hear the vocoded sound. Does the vocoder not work over usb audio?

On the FA the vocoder is a MFX effect which is routed to the MAIN audio bus. USB out is the same main bus signal like the main output jacks.
Try to check the level settings according operating manual page 42.
Remember that vocoded signal will only apply if you press keys.
