MIDI controls determine how GSnap deals with particular MIDI information. Correction determines the method and audible effect of the tuning algorithm. The Detection section allows you to fine-tune GSnap's ability to deal with incoming audio. The controls are divided into three groups: Detection, Correction, and MIDI. Two further switches allow the user to select between 'fixed' or 'midi' modes, explained below. Additionally, twelve 'switches' next to the pitch data view correspond to the twelve semitones of a full octave in the Western chromatic scale, and are used to supplement the 'fixed' mode of GSnap. Each has its function clearly labelled above, and features a user-editable readout below. You may find the results even more interesting than that 'other' vocal effect!Ģ Interface The GUI features a set of 12 knobs which control all of the plug-in's parameters.

Try feeding GSnap some MIDI information in real-time during a vocal passage. Automate switching between Fixed and MIDI mode for ultimate control: allow GSnap to do its thing automatically for much of the material, and then 'take over' for passages or notes that need specific work. Use the automatic correction with Forced Key to help approximate that famous vocal effect. Complex material with rapid note changes may require several hours of dedicated MIDI programming to deal with, and may still end up sounding less than realistic. GSnap's effect is more useful with simple material. Hints Try GSnap with non-vocal material for interesting effects. In most cases, you will need either to restart the host program or re-scan the plug-in folder in order for newly-installed plug-ins to appear. You need to copy the plug-in files to the appropriate folder for your host program.

Once extracted, you should have one or more DLL files, these are the plug-in files. All GVST plug-ins come compressed in a ZIP file, so the first step is to extract the files from the ZIP file. It requires a monophonic input signal to operate. It can be used subtly to correct the pitch of a vocal, or, with more extreme settings, to create a robot-voice effect.
