This may sound stupid, but can the MF play vocoder patches without you needing to input into the microphone? I've tried changing settings but I think I'm missing something...when I use any of the vocoder patches they only output sound when I'm talking into the mic...I would think you could play a patch just regularly and then use the mic as desired, right?
feel free to slap me across the forehead if I missed something really simple...I just know before I got the mic, the patches played normal.
