YAMAHA.COM 3 MUSIC PRODUCTION GUIDE 05|2019 Each Vocoder uses two types of signals: The Carrier signal PREFERENCES and the Modulator signal. To use the Vocoder, connect a microphone to the A/D- The Carrier signal is a timbre generated by Samples or INPUT (L/MONO). Preferably use headphones to listen Oscillators in current Vocoders.

The Carrier is either a Preset AWM Waveform assigned to the respective Part, a User Waveform (Sample), or an FM-X Part. The output signal of this Part is fed to the Vocoder Effect (Insert A or B). This uses the microphone signal supplied via the A/D-INPUT as Modulator. The Preset Performances contain pre-programmed Vocoder sounds that provide a quick introduction to using the Vocoder. You will find these Performances in the Category "Pad/ Choir" (Sub "Choir").

Now speak into the microphone - singing would be counterproductive here! Set GAIN high enough that there is a sufficient signal without distortion. The PEAK LED should not light up. Important: The modulated Vocoder signal is only audible when you play one or more notes on the keyboard. This is due to the fact that in the Common Display "Audio In - Mixing" the Output Select is set to "Off".

Vocal phrases are controlled by Arpeggios and fed into the Vocoder. The two Parts used as Carrier and Modulator are also combined with other Parts in complex Multi Part Performances. FREE VOCODER PERFORMANCES Those who are interested in a larger selection of Vocoder Performances will be pleased about this offer: With its free Soundlibrary "Easy Vocoder", EASY SOUNDS makes a total of 40 Vocoder Performances available for download exclusively for MONTAGE/MODX users. These are the first 40 Voices of the MOTIF Soundlibrary "Vocoder Dreamz" that have been converted to Single Part Performances without the use of additional MONTAGE/ MODX features. The first 16 Performances (FX Vocoder 01 - 16) contain combinations of Vocoder sounds with synth pads. Performances 17 - 40 contain only Vocoder sounds. The other Voices and Performances of Vocoder Dreamz (vocal phrases, drum loops...) were not prepared for MONTAGE / MODX. If you want to use Vocoder sounds in combination with drums, vocal phases, and other sounds, you should take a closer look at the Library MONTAGE / MODX "Magic Vox".

  • The Futurism of Hip Hop: Space, Electro and Science Fiction in Rap
    Open Cultural Studies 2018; 2: 122–135 Research Article Adam de Paor-Evans* The Futurism of Hip Hop: Space, Electro and Science Fiction in Rap https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2018-0012 Received January 27, 2018; accepted June 2, 2018 Abstract: In the early 1980s, an important facet of hip hop culture developed a style of music known as electro-rap, much of which carries narratives linked to science fiction, fantasy and references to arcade games and comic books. The aim of this article is to build a critical inquiry into the cultural and socio- political presence of these ideas as drivers for the productions of electro-rap, and subsequently through artists from Newcleus to Strange U seeks to interrogate the value of science fiction from the 1980s to the 2000s, evaluating the validity of science fiction’s place in the future of hip hop. Theoretically underpinned by the emerging theories associated with Afrofuturism and Paul Virilio’s dromosphere and picnolepsy concepts, the article reconsiders time and spatial context as a palimpsest whereby the saturation of digitalisation becomes both accelerator and obstacle and proposes a thirdspace-dromology. In conclusion, the article repositions contemporary hip hop and unearths the realities of science fiction and closes by offering specific directions for both the future within and the future of hip hop culture and its potential impact on future society. Keywords: dromosphere, dromology, Afrofuturism, electro-rap, thirdspace, fantasy, Newcleus, Strange U Introduction During the mid-1970s, the language of New York City’s pioneering hip hop practitioners brought them fame amongst their peers, yet the methods of its musical production brought heavy criticism from established musicians.

  • The Last Hunt of Jim Corbett by Joseph Jordania University of Melbourne
    Presentation treatment Of the feature film The Last Hunt of Jim Corbett By Joseph Jordania University of Melbourne Logline: An aging legendary hunter-turned conservationist Jim Corbett is asked to go after a very cunning man-eating tiger that is terrorizing mountain villages and thousands of woodchoppers at the Indian-Nepalese border. The hunter finds himself trapped between the governmental intrigues and the man-eating tiger who is hunting Corbett. Genre: environmental drama-suspense I N T R O D U C T I O N This text is the result of detailed investigation of the author of the story the last hunt of the legendary hunter, conservationist and author Jim Corbett. This hunt took place in Kumaon, North India, between the small villages Chuka and Thak, next to Nepal, in October-November 1938. This is the last story of Corbett’s book “Man-Eaters of Kumaon” (1944. Oxford University Press). The book became an instant classic and bestseller. From the early 1970s, when I read this story for the first time, I was profoundly moved by its sheer dramatic, thriller-like atmosphere, where the hunter and the man-eating tiger stalk each other in the jungles and the streets of the deserted Indian village. Every bit of the story, starting with the heart-melting accidental meeting of Corbett with the future man-eating tigress with small cubs (during Corbett’s previous hunt), followed by the tragic change of the life of the tigress, caused by the poacher-inflicted wounds, attacks on humans, and then hair-rising duel of the hunter and the clever tigress, culminating in the dramatic encounter of the hunter and the tigress on the dying seconds of the daylight, was the most dramatic story I have ever read.

In sum it means cultivating and refining Ta thing to such an extent that its end product evokes our admiration and respect. This is practically the same as ‘Sanskriti’ of the Sanskrit language. The term ‘Sanskriti’ has been derived from the root ‘Kri (to do) of Sanskrit language. Three words came from this root ‘Kri; prakriti’ (basic matter or condition), ‘Sanskriti’ (refined matter or condition) and ‘vikriti’ (modified or decayed matter or condition) when ‘prakriti’ or a raw material is refined it becomes ‘Sanskriti’ and when broken or damaged it becomes ‘vikriti’.
