Anyone ever tried to plug a bass in the Vocoder input of the MicroKorg ?
If so, i would like to know what kind of sound you were able to get.
Thanx

This should allow you to use it as an effects processor, too. Only problem being you must use the keyboard simultaenously to get sounds out of it so it kind of wrecks the live usage >_< |

If I understand correctly, vocoders work by manipulating the pitch of the voice, and do not allow any sound to pass through when the keyboard portion is not played. If I'm right about that, you would have to play a perfect unison line on the MicroKorg for it to work at all. |

Enough trouble, that I never did try it. Look on the Korg, or Moog's site's, there might be some directions available.

Distortion and fuzz is pretty killer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO0CTOJEpwg
