Practice Smarter with 40 Free Lessons from Melodics Melodics is a desktop app that lets you tackle step-by-step lessons and tracks, perfect new beats, refine your rhythm and timing, and self-assess your performances with the record/playback feature. You may need to tweak them quite differently depending on the Modulation/Carrier sounds you’re using. Remember that the following settings works well with the kind of Carrier sound I’m using (at least to my taste). Melodics is a fun way learn a new instrument or improve your skills if you already play. This is essential to make the vocoding sound right because, otherwise the dry signal of the ‘Modulation sound’ will be sent to the Master track as well and we don’t want that as we want it to go there through the Vocodex. Choosing ‘Sidechain to this track only’ is important because this will deselect the send to master switch and prevent the ‘Modulation sound’ audio signal going to the Master mixer track. Now, in the Mixer, select the ‘Modulation sound’ mixer track and while on that track, right-click on the ‘Carrier sound’ mixer track send switch (that little up arrow icon) and select ‘Sidechain to this track only’. Rename the track to something like ‘Carrier sound’ and drop a Vocodex to it’s effect slot. I’ll be using one of the presets in DX10, ‘Reed1’.Īssign the synth to a free mixer track. Those kind of sounds usually make good Carrier sounds. They start with simple chords and move up to complex arrangements. Load your favourite synth (I’ll use Fruity DX10 in this example) and choose a pad or lead preset (or program a one) that is ‘thick’ and ‘lush’ and covers the whole frequency range. Multi-Media SettingsThis digital piano features with a backlit LCD screen for clearly showing chords names and notation and adjusting wanted tones, recording mode-MIDI, MP3 Player and two 25W amplifiers, bringing you richer and better experience of practice and performance. For Melodics Keys, which is for keyboard players, the lessons are graded from level 1 through 16. Assign it to a free mixer track and rename the track to something like ‘Modulation sound’ or similar as the drum loop is going to be the Modulator sound. In FL Studio there’s a very good vocoder effect called Vocodex and in this tutorial I will show you how you can use it to create melodic grooves out of drum loops using any synth.įirst thing to do is to pick a drum loop from your sample collection and drop it to the Playlist. It’s the way to make those classic sci-fi robot sounds for example, but can be used for various other means as well. ![]() For example, you can use human voice to modulate a synth pad or lead and it’ll sound like the synth is talking. With Smart Scale controls right on the keys, you will have easy access to set and change Smart Scale parameters on the fly, keeping you focused on what is most important, creating music.Ever heard of vocoder or vocoding? If not, basically, vocoding is a process where you use the frequency spectrum of sound A (Modulator) to modulate the frequency spectrum of sound B (Carrier). You can choose from over 15 different scale variations when assigning a scale to the keyboard. This allows you to play within a chosen scale without the risk of playing any wrong notes. and want to start again, try factory restoring the default settings on your controller. With Smart Scale, you can set the keybed so that only notes in the selected scale are able to be played. Sometimes changing settings can cause issues. The Oxygen series also features intelligent Smart Scale technology. The note of the key you press will serve as the root of the chord and all the parameters can be edited right on your Oxygen keyboard controller. For example, if you select Custom Mode, and play a 1-b3-5-b7 chord, every key will then be assigned to play this chord structure. Smart Chord also has a Custom Mode which lets you determine the chord structure that will be assigned to each key by manually playing it. The rest of the chord’s properties (Major, Minor, and Voicing) are determined by the settings you choose. The key you press will determine the root note in the chord. With Smart Chord activated, pressing a single key will play a full chord rather than just one note. With Smart Chord and Smart Scale technology, creating music and unleashing your unlimited creativity has never been easier. ![]() The Smart Chord feature helps bring out your inner musical genius by playing full chords with a single key press, and with the Smart Scale feature, the Oxygen 25 (MKV) keys transform into a perfect scale, playing the exact notes within a chosen scale. Smart Chord and Smart Scale technology are the bridges between your musically creative mind and your final productions. ![]()
