Description

A pair of devices for flexible voice allocation in Live.

Hocket S. (send) takes the MIDI note messages on a track and splits them up into single-note events which are routed to up to eight other channels with Hockey R. (Receive) devices. This allows for one piece of melodic content to be split up among multiple instruments, achieving a hocketing effect.

Hocketing is a technique that divides one melody among two or more voices. Hocketing appears in many folk music traditions (Indonesian Gamelan, Ukranian Pan-pipe ensembles, and the extremely rad vocal music of Central African Foragers), in the European classical tradition hocketing was used primarily in vocal music of the 13th and early 14th centuries. Notable uses of hocketing in modern music can be found from Meredith Monk or The Dirty Projectors. The MONO/POLY produced by Korg in 1981 is a paraphonic synthesizer capable of producing hocketing effects, and the original inspiration for this device.
