Korg Forums

Greetings all,
Forgive my ignorance but i just saw some videos of the ROLAND V-SYNTH's vocal designing capabilities ont the net and was especially blown away by Tatsuya Nishiwaki's performance on the roland website.
I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions for achieving these functions on korg keyboards. I do all my work on korg tr's at the time being but plan on updating to Oasys within the upcoming year. So if anyone in the korg community has some helpful advice as to prevent my purchasing of this Roland workstaion. and showing me some sort of guiding light towards acheiving these functions via korg or some cheaper solution/alternative.
Thanks

LoL, I've just seen it. You have a whole bunch of them on YTube

We can't do anything similar with the TR, sorry.
V-Synth is a space shuttle compared to the TR, but the TR is still a decent instrument.
I'm not sure what OASYS can to when it comes to modeling vocals.
You should ask that question in the OASYS section.

Oh, while you're there , ask them if they wanna swap keys lol

Wow, yeah I just watched that video and yeah, it is pretty amazing! Personally I LOVE vocoders. I use one with my band and it works great for a good "classic" vocoder sound- NORD Micro-modular. However, these are no longer made and might be hard to find (should be able on ebay though). For a newer, more airy vododer sound, I've used the ORANGE Vocoder plug-in from Digidesign. I don't have a laptop so I can't use it live, but it absolutely shinned on recordings!

Agreed, Orange rocks out!
So small, so powerful

The oasys has vocoding options heres a video i found of a korg forums member showing some examples. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTfw1YWy ... re=channel

A vocal processor like the TC Helicon Voice Live 2 can give you huge vocal effects for only $800 vs. $3,300 for the V-Synth GT. In many respects, the VL2 is much better for that purpose.
