Includes V-Producer Software
V-Producer combines the reliability of the VP-9000 hardware with the convenience of your personal computer. Now you can control everything from encoding and wave editing to building arrangements, mixing and effects using a computer screen and mouse. Let V-Producer open the door to a new way of making music with VariPhrase.

Powerful Phrase Scope Editing
The VP-9000’s ability to manipulate Pitch, Time, and Formant via front-panel knobs has made it popular with live performers. Now, with V-Producer’s Phrase Scope window, studio users can control these same elements using an intuitive graphic interface. Create new melodies by drawing in the pitch, or change phrasing with the click of a mouse—all in real time.

Main Window and Mixer Window
V-Producer’s Main Window offers intuitive “drag and drop” sequencing of phrases loaded in the VP-9000. Build your song onscreen, then open the Mixer Window for graphic 6-channel mixing of the VP-9000’s multitimbral parts. You can even control the VP-9000’s internal effects and routing graphically via the Effects Window.

Controls Up to Six VP-9000’s
A single copy of V-Producer can be used to control up to six VP-9000’s. Create a complete VariPhrase workstation with up to 36 audio tracks (36 voices or 36 multitimbral parts) and bring it all together under one simple, elegant program. V-Producer is the software that grows with your hardware.

MTC Sync Ready
While V-Producer is designed to work as a stand-alone application, it can also be synchronized with other hardware and software sequencers—even if they’re run on the same computer—using MTC (MIDI Time Code). Or, simply export your V-Producer arrangement as a Standard MIDI File. The choice is yours…
