Korg R3: Any tips on how to use the R3 with a Talk Box?

Post by patonico »

Hey everybody:
I've seen on youtube videos of people using the microkorg with a talkbox... and I thought "hey! I bet I can do the same with my R3!". Before I go and buy a talkbox, does anyone has any advice, or recomendation?

Thanks!
Nico

The only bit of advice I can offer is Talkbox's are fantastic but not for either loud live performances or in loud environments.

I bought one to use for my Yamaha An1x and R3, but shortly sold it as it picked up loud noises nearby and my vocals became illegible.

I found that typical effects with lots of Bass work fantastic compared to lighter effects.
If you want to hear a sample of what the vocals can sound like, have a listen to the first bit of one of my bands songs Catch 22,

Hi! thank you so much for your suggestions. If it's not too much asking for, could you type a short tutorial on how to configure an R3 program to use it with a talkbox? thanks in advance.
