Resonating Formant frequencies and clipping
- Because of the resonant frequencies of the Formant filter, it's easy to make the digital signal clip. Make sure there's enough headroom in the preset level.
Simulating a talkbox with Formant
- With the help of the Formant effect you can simulate a talkbox and (if you really really must ...) play Livin' on a Prayer. Here are some threads to get you going:

- Talk box in Wikipedia
- A real talkbox doesn't go through a speaker, so experiment with leaving out a Cab block.
Formant: info and tips
- Cliff: "The Formant on the Axe-Fx II is identical to the Ultra." source
