11. Editing the Vocal Harmonist parts
Apart from the effect settings discussed earlier, there
are also other VOCAL HARMONIST settings that can be
customized. All Vocal Harmonist Parts except the TALK
option provide additional parameters.
Procedure for selecting these pages
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
The display changes to:
(2) Press the [VOCAL≈HARMONIST] field.
The display changes to:
(3) Press [VOICE] or [HARMONY] to specify which sec-
tion you wish to edit.
(4) In the second row, press the field that corresponds
to the VOCAL HARMONIST part you wish to edit.
You could also press and hold the corresponding but-
ton on the front panel.
We suggest connecting a microphone and to sing/
talk while making the following settings.
Singer settings
When the [SINGER] indicator lights, your solo singing is
output. Press and hold the [SINGER] button to jump to
the following page.
(1) Press the [MALE] or [FEMALE] field.
This is an important clue for the HARMONY processor
(Vocoder, Small or Ensemble). It does not change the
character of your live singing, though.
Press the field that corresponds to your voice type.
That way, the added harmony voices will sound even
more convincing.
(2) Press the [VIBRATO] field to add an automatic
Vibrato effect to your singing.
Note that this is probably only useful as gimmick:
your natural vibrato no doubt sounds far more… nat-
ural. The Vibrato parameters can be set on the “EDIT”
page.
(3) When you are done, either press the [EXIT] button
to return to the main page, or one of the other
buttons to set those parameters as well.
Note: The [VOCAL≈EFFECT] and [EQUALIZER] fields allow you
to jump to the effect or tone controls.
If you press the
[EDIT]
field…
…the display looks as follows:
Press the field of the parameter you wish to edit and
set the desired value with the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or
the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.
For the following, the [VIBRATO] button icon must be
on for the effect to be noticeable.
Vibrato RATE—Sets the speed of the vibrato effect.
