short simple but effective ...

UTILIZATION

the use of the device's going pretty well, ability to save 3 patch include: pitch, the training, the reverb mix and balance. (Not the overall volume damage)

namely a keyboard can be connected to the VT-3 (no MIDI) and it is therefore necessary to just sing! However, the robot function will set a note (determined by the pitch fader) whatever you sing.

SOUND QUALITY

for his enthusiastic and I mixed a time, the record is very modern (too) often see shot ...

Live: this effect as the name suggests is the sound of the voice ... but little direct benefit as the pitch of the reverb, forming the balance and mix in a rather neutral and natural (except of course if extreme setting) so you can have your normal voice added a low or high pitch ditto for forming, on the other hand if you set everything extreme you have the voice of barry white go had a child with the devil, equipped with child huge testicle passage (or its very serious), has the opposite of a human voice 2cm with the chest that goes with it, forming the highest and the lowest pitch to give an alien voice or Puppetmastaz for those who know (wath's the mission) ... in short an effect between funny and interesting ...

auto pitch 1: even a direct possibility but of course a self pitch too violent allowing all the notes.

auto pitch 2: same principle as 1 but with a much more violent auto tune does not let all the notes (how "one more time" daft punk but also a lot of crap radio, MTV), for one effect very cliche but not impossible to de-contextualize, so to see ...

vocoder is a classic robot voice type excellence intro of "intergalactic" the beasty boy see the magic dictation ....

synth: VP series alleging the same manufacturer a synth sound not really going anywhere, especially on incomprehensible words pronounced ... well but takes up space in the spectrum ...

lead a sort of theremin with a hint of castafiore ... as for the synth has cased unclear, I do not like too ...

bass: the cliché again but this time dubstep, skrillex way, some types of digital synthesis resembles often called humanizer.

mega-phone: a kind of particular Eq with a hip-hop record of the year hardcor 90 must love ...

radio: as more extreme mega-phone, radio what ... (but then radio 20 years ...)

scatter: beat repeat donation tempo is not adjustable (damage), if the sound is short beat repeat is short, if the sound is along the beat repeat is long, a bit random as rendering, no make believe that you are god of beat box but ...

OVERALL OPINION

overall it's mixed for me (depending on what you want) even though I always assumed that all use a little machine time or has other, here is generally the cliché but it yours that has possessor are de-contextualize the sounds (or not again after what you want), I hesitated sell the next day and finally I keep for different experiments, for the price it is pretty good .

ps: obviously the VT-3 will not replace your vocoder (even a microkorg)
