This also changes the available preset options in
the center of the display. If, on the above page,
you press [Mix] for example, the display changes
to:
(7) Press one of the preset fields ([Walkin’Vox],
for example) to select a different harmony
type.
(8) Now press the [ENSEMBLE] button and sing
again.
This sounds more like a choir, don’t you agree?
(9) Press and hold the [ENSEMBLE] button.
The display changes to:
You already know what the [Male], [Female], and
[Mix] fields are for. The 10 preset fields in the
middle allow you to select different “voicings”
and voice characters for your choir.
(10) To sing again without automatic harmonies,
press the [SMALL] or [ENSEMBLE] button again
(so that neither of them lights).
Note: Obviously, you do not have to use a song as back-
ing: you can also play the accompaniment yourself. See
page 31 and below.
Who specifies the harmonies?
Now that you know what the Vocal Harmonizer does, let us briefly look at how it does that.
You may have noticed the [Harmony≈Assign]
field in the lower left corner of the above dis-
play pages.
Its current (default) setting is “Auto”. This
means that, during song playback, the note
information contained in the song data will be
used for specifying the pitches of the harmony
notes (“Auto Harmony”).
Note: If the song you are playing back contains a “Har-
mony track”, the harmonies will be based on those
notes. In all other cases, the harmonies are generated in
realtime.
If you stop song playback and play chords on
the keyboard, the note information thus gener-
ated is used for the harmony pitches.
Use the [VALUE] dial to select another setting.
The possibilities are:
Keyboard
(all)
Only notes played on the keyboard will
be used for specifying harmony pitches.
Keyboard
Left
Only notes played to the left of the split
point (page 32) will be used for specify-
ing harmony pitches.
Keyboard
Right
Only notes played to the right of the
split point (page 32) will be used for
specifying harmony pitches.
Song The note information contained in the
song you are playing back is used.
