Perform Series PERFORM-VE
The PERFORM-VE is an amazing tool for the electronic musician who wants to experiment with Vocoding, Vocal Sample Synthesis, and other vocal effects. It combines an innovative sampling engine with world-class vocal effects, midi harmonies, and an intuitive looper to create a unique instrument.
Game-changing Synthesis
VE’s Vocal Sample Synthesis engine allows you to manipulate samples in ways that were previously impossible. All it takes is one press of a button! Instantly record and play back time-stretched and pitch-flattened samples from your midi keyboard without the hassle of using an editor.
Be Inspired
Create unique, exciting sounds like you would on any other synthesizer, except with your voice. Vocal Sample Synthesis allows you to mimic filters and envelopes naturally with your voice, and the VE’s comprehensive suite of effects allows you to further tweak your sound.
Morph and Modulate
You can easily use the PERFORM-VE to shift, modulate and mangle your vocals in ways you’ve never heard before. Use the morph button to change your pitch and gender, and use the XFX button to apply rhythmic modulation effects!
Get Loopy
VE has a fast, intuitive two-track drum/audio looper that is beginner friendly yet feature rich. Lay down a short drum groove using the inbuilt drum samples and then lay down a longer multi-bar loop on top of it using your voice, VE’s sample-synth, or an external instrument.
Stay Synced
Keep your gear in sync thanks to PERFORM-VE’s ability to receive MIDI tempo data from a wide range of external devices and use the aux input to loop external instruments.
Record with Ease
PERFORM-VE can seamlessly integrate with any professional or home studio setup. Its multichannel USB audio interface allows you to record directly into your DAW or use VE to efficiently re-process already recorded vocals. The professional grade Midas Preamplifiers give the VE pristine audio and warm analog soft-saturation when overdriven.
Instant Access
The center knob allows you to instantly control and modulate all VE’s effects, making performance and sound design a breeze. No menu-diving here!
