    I just got one and i’ve been using a Shure sm58 Dynamic with the gain set to “high”. without some kind of Input Meters though its hard to tell how hot the signal is relative. its definately not distorting and i have to be quite loud into the mic to get a good effect so i’m guessing a hotter microphone might be better.

    I mean the problem is that when you sing just before / after the MIDI Note then the internal synth pitch immediately reverts back to the pitch set by the ‘Pitch’ knob. oops.

    slight problem when playing live.

    I think the Pitch Knob was set at 12 O’clock. But I dont’ think that matters.

    The problem is that the ‘Default’ Pitch is probably set by the Pitch Knob which is not going to be necessarily in tune with the Song I’m playing at the time ( triggering via Midi).

    It seems like the only solution is to constantly send some midi note to the v256 during that song of the base note or similar to ensure that the v256 is not going to be too out of key if i happen to sing into it at the wrong time.

    It would be better though If it had a MIDI GATE Mode where the Output is Muted unless there is a MIDI Note bveing received. which is the way one usually uses a Vocoder. Can this possibly be addressed with a Software update?

    CC 64 Internal Synth Sustain: 0-127
