[music-dsp] Roland AX-Synth

[robert bristow-johnson]

 
do you folks know if the Roland AX-Synth has a real-time vocal pitch shift function like the Digitech Vocalist or the TC-Helicon VoiceTone?  i know that Korg and Roland and Novation had/have other synths with a vocoder of some sort in it.  i know that, back in the olden
daze, Roland had a similar cheapie Voice Transformer.


it's just that Imogen Heap is playing an AX and doing vocal shifting in this video:

.  but there is nothing about this function in any of the descriptions of the AX-Synth.  the AX was meant to be totally portable and battery powered.  does
that mean there is a remote box that can output MIDI from what she plays on the keyboard?  it appears she has some kinda transmitter taped to the bottom of her AX.


i was just curious what she uses to do vocal pitch shifting and can't quite figure it out what it is.

Looks like she's using something like this to send midi to another bit of
kit
