Korg Miku Stomp Pedal eVocaloid pedale effetti

Descrizione

With Korg's Miku Stomp effect pedal, you can control Hatsune Miku's voice with your guitar. Its eVocaloid technology was developed by Yamaha and is based on the NSX-1 chip. By making Miku sing with your guitar, you add a new expressive layer to your sound with characteristics that are nothing like those a keyboard or another effect pedal could provide. The Miku Stomp is only suitable for single notes, which makes it ideal for melodies. Its die-cast aluminium housing sports an illustration of Hatsune Miku that was specially commissioned. Wherever you choose to use this pedal, you're bound to get noticed.

11 built-in patterns

The Korg Miku Stomp comes with 11 preprogrammed lyric patterns, including simple sounds like 'looh,' 'lahh,' 'aah' and 'paah,' but offers a scat mode too, as well as two settings that cause Miku to sing random sounds that form new lyrics. Three sentences are also at your disposal, including the lyrics to the popular 'Senbonzakura.' There's even an option that allows you to enter your own lyrics by means of a special iPhone app. Although this app only supports Japanese, it's possible to use romaji, which allows you to use the Latin alphabet to express Japanese. Japanse input is supported in both 'hiragana' and 'katakana.'

Hatsune Miku

The character of Hatsune Miku was developed using Vocaloid technology. She owes her voice to speech synthesis software designed by Crypton Future Media and Yamaha, which means it's possible to synthesise vocals by entering lyrics and composing a melody to go with them. Voice actress Saki Fujita supplied the samples that were necessary to create Miku's voice, and the character's name comes from merging the Japanese words for 'first' (hatsu), 'sound' (ne) and 'future' (miku). By now, Hatsune Miku has achieved world fame. Her concerts are a real spectacle with Miku herself taking the stage by means of 3D projection. Usually a live band provides backing, turning the concerts of this 16-year old girl into an unforgettable experience.
