Roland VT-12 User Manual

Practicing
The VT-12 provides two practice modes: Warm-up mode and Exercise mode. Each mode contains
tracks (p. 3) that are ideal for the corresponding type of practice.
Since the sound you produce while practicing is automatically recorded to the relevant tracks, you
can listen to it afterwards (Review function).
Warm-up mode This contains tracks for vocalization practice that will warm up your voice.
Exercise mode
This contains tracks for improving your vocal technique, such as enhancing your
breathing control and broadening your vocal range.
MEMO
For more about practicing, you can also refer to the separate “Practice Guide.”
It provides helpful advice on vocalizing and singing, and tips for practicing with each track.
* Each time a track is played back, a new recording is started. If you play back a track that was
previously recorded, the sound that was recorded on that track will be overwritten. If you stop
the playback of a track within 3 seconds after the moment it was started, sound will not be
recorded on that track.
The button of the selected mode will light.
