Yamaha VL70M Virtual Acoustic Tone Generator

Unique to Yamaha computer-based "physical modeling" technology which accurately simulates the complex vibrations resonances reflections and other acoustic phenomena that occur in real wind or string instruments-to produce high quality monophonic voices

FEATURES:
Built-in Effects Section:
With independent Reverb, Chorus, Variation and Distortion effects

Flexible Voice Editing Options:
Although many parameters can be edited via the panel controls, peripheral voice editing software is available to give much more voicing flexibility.

Visual Editor:
An application with a graphical interface which allows you to make selections using easy-to-understand palettes and clickable buttons. (A Windows® version of the Visual Editor is also available.)

Analog Editor:
An application with graphical interface which allows you to make selections using familiar analog-style knobs and switches.

Expert Editor:
Provides full access to the complete range of physical modeling parameters, ideal for creating entirely new voices.

Compatible:
Designed for compatibility with various types of external devices. A WX In jack lets you connect a Yamaha WX-series Wind MIDI controller. The "VL Extension for XG" feature significantly enhances and expands the musical capabilities of the XG format. A TO HOST connector lets you connect a personal computer for editing, sequencing and other musical applications without a separate MIDI interface.

Versatile:
Use from a keyboard, a Wind MIDI controller or a Guitar MIDI converter

System Examples:
VL70-m with a BC3 breath controller, the BC3 allows even greater musical expression; VL70-m with a WX5 wind MIDI controller; VL70-m with G50 and G1D, setup with a guitar MIDI converter; VL70-m sound to a Computer Music Playback (VL Extension for XG)
