• The PLG100-VH board is part of the Modular Synthesis Plug-in System. It is an effect processor that can be

used in Performance mode or ‘live’ in a Song or Pattern to effect a microphone plugged into the A/D input

(analog-to-digital). Please follow all the instructions in the Owner’s Manual concerning installation. You can

verify proper installation by powering up and viewing the UTILITY/ F6 PLUG screen. This Guide will take you

through setting up the A/D input and editing the PLG100-VH from the front panel of the Motif. (There is also

available a free stand alone VH Editor that brings the front panel parameters to your computer screen).

This Guide assumes you are at the Motif with the PLG100-VH properly installed in slot 1 and have a quality microphone

plugged into the LEFT (L) A/D input on the back panel of the unit. Follow this guide step-by-step at least the first time

through. When you are comfortable with the setup procedures feel free to experiment creating your own setups.

Some terminology that you will find in the VH area:

Lead (Melody) – Refers to your natural voice or the synthesized lead Voice w/pitch correction. Can be assigned an

independent MIDI channel from the Harmony

Harmony (H) – MIDI controlled backing vocals (3 max.) follow chord/MIDI input. Can be triggered on it’s own channel.

Gender (G) – male or female voice. Change gender without expensive, painful medical procedures.

Depth (Dpt) – how much a parameter will effect the sound

Threshold (Thresh) - the level at which a particular effect kicks in. Signals below the threshold are not effected.

Pitch Correction (PchCorrect) - when activated and a Gender type is selected you can create a ‘vocode’ effect that will

follow your played notes. You can balance this with your normal voice or mix it completely to the vocoder effect.
