Yamaha Tyros4 develops a human side

the human singing voice is used in music everywhere, on records, dvds, in church, football matches even at work. the probelm is that this makes it very difficult to imitate convincingly. Yamaha have introduced some new techniques in sampling and processing to create awesome new vocal sounds and significant improvements to the Vocal Harmony (VH2) facility.

Ambient sampling is a new method for sampling classical vocal sounds. Normally you would place the microphone as close as possible to the source of the noise, with ambiemt sampling the microphones are positioned very carefully within the room to capture not only the voices but also the rooms ambience.

wave cycling is the voicing technology used by Yamaha to create fantastic pop vocals altering shoo-bee-doo-wop as a multi sampled layered sound that you have control over. When used in the rhythmn section and by the player a whole new sound is created full of human influence. The overall effect is awesome !

VH2 - Vocal harmony 2

There are 44 vocal harmony presets included on Tyros4, great starting points to see how you get along, everything is editable so if its not quite right for you you can change it. Tyros4 now includes a new synth vocorder. this real time vocal processor uses 1 of 10 carrier voices together with the microphone signal to create a talking synthesiser effect.

Standard Tyros4 features

Its still worth mentioning that Tyros4 still has all the standard features you would expect from a top of the range keyboard. You can make and edit your own styles, take styles from the Tyros 4 and change them or take styles from the A&C Hamilton Turbo Stick and edit them to suit yourself.

There is a 16 track sequencer for you to do your own instant recordings, dead easy to use but offers the flexibility for you to punch in punch out and change absolutely anything you want. 16 tracks of utter freedom.

Not to be confused with the 16 track record feature, the real audio recorder allows you to make recordings of anything thing from the Tyros4 and save it in a useable format for ipods hi-fis car stereos. For example : you can plug the mic in play your favourite song, sing along and record it all and save it to a usb stick and then play it on your computer or hi-fi.
