exceeds the specified number of semitones below the lead vocal
pitch.
UPPER GENDER DEPTH Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes
higher than the UPPER GENDER THRESHOLD. The higher the
value, the more “feminine” the harmony voice becomes. The
lower the value, the more “masculine” the voice.

lower than the LOWER GENDER THRESHOLD. The higher the
value, the more “feminine” the harmony voice becomes. The
lower the value, the more “masculine” the voice.

affects the lead vocal sound when the LEAD GENDER TYPE
above is set to other than Off.
