Note

Vovious works best on clean vocal recordings with no echo, reverb or other effects on the signal!

Important For Mac Users

To use Vovious with ARA in LUNA, you have to use the VST3 version.

Insert Vovious

Click on the "WARP" field and then select Vovious from the context menu.

After inserting Vovious, the audio material is automatically transferred to Vovious and you can start editing.

Switching Between Tracks

Since LUNA integrates Vovious into its user interface (only one instance of Vovious is visible), Vovious follows your clip and track selection in LUNA.

Working With Multiple Tracks

When working with multiple tracks, it can be helpful to switch between the tracks via TrackSwitcher (T key).

Reference Tracks:

To display tracks as reference, activate them by ticking the box on the right-hand side. (1 in the picture below)

To determine which notes belong to which track, it can be helpful to assign different colors to the different tracks and activate "Ref. Color: DAW" (3) in the "Reference Tracks" (2) menu.

To set the track color in LUNA, do a click on the marked area in the picture below.

You can also switch between tracks using keyboard shortcuts.
(It may be necessary to change the keyboard shortcuts so that they do not conflict with keyboard shortcuts used by your DAW)

Furthermore, you can switch between tracks by double-clicking on the notes of the reference tracks.

Track Name

For better orientation, you can display the name and color of the currently selected track in the upper left corner of Vovious.

To show the track name and color, you must activate "Show Track Name" in the Sidebar.

Keyboard Focus

If you use keyboard shortcuts in Vovious, it can be useful to activate "Keyboard Focus On Mouse Enter". Then Vovious catches the keyboard focus as soon as you move the mouse into Vovious. Otherwise, you have to activate the keyboard focus with a mouse click into Vovious. This can be helpful if your keyboard shortcuts accidentally end up in your DAW because you forgot to set the focus.

The disadvantage is that if you accidentally move the mouse through Vovious, the keyboard focus is taken away from your DAW. You will be notified when the keyboard focus is grabbed by a message in the upper right corner of Vovious.
