Thanks guys....appreciate th info on this. I'll be digging into this a bit more and searching for previous posts as JazzManDan suggested. If this thing can be used standalone with BIAB and or RB, with no other "live" inputs, that could really open up a whole new avenue for song development and accompaniment.




as Mac said, using the voiceworks can be as easy as letting BIAB or RB send chords to it... but, if you are willing to endure a little learning curve, this device is totally MIDI programmable! Every singe function that you can change with the controls on the device's face plate can also be controlled by sending MIDI data to it!

This means that you could have a gig that uses hundreds of different settings on the voiceworks, and never have to touch it once because your songs send the specific settings needed by that song!

It can do things like select the correct patch, set the correct key, select the appropriate harmony type, add and subtract additional harmony parts, turn harmonies off and on as needed in the song at exactly the right place (without you having to divert your attention from the song in order to find a pedal and stomp on it)

If you are familiar with making piano roll edits to volume and velocity, this works exactly the same way, except the company has defined their own uses for the upper controller numbers. These controller numbers, and what they do, can be found in the user manual.
