Roland VariOS Open System Module
VariOS is an open-ended hardware/software system that allows musicians to build audio-based tracks with the same flexibility as MIDI. All processing is handled by the VariOS module, which is controlled using bundled software. The first software bundle is V-Producer for VariOS. This software lets musicians manipulate a sample’s pitch, time and formant, add effects and even build complete arrangements while keeping the music flowing and without CPU drain. VariOS Open System Module Features• :• Open-ended realtime audio construction system consisting of VariOS module and new V-Producer for VariOS software • Play back up to 14 phrases simultaneously with 6-part multi-timbral operation • Award-winning VariPhrase technology for intuitive realtime manipulation of pitch, time and formant -- control audio phrases like MIDI! • Batch load/auto-encode .WAV/AIFF audio files from computer via USB and browser • Internal memory holds up to 300 seconds of mono samples (150 seconds in stereo) • Easy drag-and-drop sample arrangement -- build a complete song in minutes! • PhraseScope window provides free-form editing of a phrase’s melody content • GrooveScope window allows non-destructive reconstruction of rhythm loops • Graphic editing of VariOS module’s 40 multi-effects, 8 chorus types and 9 reverbs • V-Producer for VariOS supports MIDI clock/MTC sync and audio/SMF export • Flash memory and PC Card sample storage for using VariOS module without computer • Open-ended design allows for future software updates • The Power of VariPhrase in Your PC • Imagine having a software program that allows you to build complete audio-based productions in real time without draining your computer’s processor. That’s the idea behind VariOS. This open-architecture system combines intuitive V-Producer for VariOS software with a 1U hardware module to create the most powerful audio production system ever conceived. Create complete 6-part audio arrangements while freely manipulating pitch, time and formant. VariOS also comes with separate reverb, chorus and multi-effects so you can process and mix your samples in a plug-in like environment. A simple USB connection is all it takes to be up and running. • Easy Audio Encoding and Arranging • Building a song with VariOS is a simple process. First, browse your computer hard drive for .WAV and AIFF files. V-Producer can then quickly and automatically batch encode the data and transfer it via USB to the module. Once encoded and transferred, you can arrange tracks in V-Producer using simple drag-and-drop commands. Best of all, any audio file can be made to work with another, since VariPhrase permits independent manipulation of pitch, time and formant without unwanted artifacts. • Twist Your Loops with GrooveScope • V-Producer’s GrooveScope window takes reconstructing audio loops to new extremes. First, GrooveScope analyzes the audio and time-slices it into separate events. But here’s where things get really interesting: Not only can these events be re-arranged to create new loops, but each event’s pitch and time can be manipulated graphically without altering the original sound quality. All editing is non-destructive, so you’re free to experiment as much as you please -- all in real time. And if you prefer tweaking with knobs rather than a mouse, just twist the VariOS module’s dedicated controls while scanning the audio loop, and V-Producer will faithfully capture all your moves.
