allows you to pick pitch shift intervals that fall
outside of the standard “musical harmony”
definition and as such, require no musical input
from you.

o MIDI NOTES - Allows you to specify exact

melodies and chords as harmony pitches from a
MIDI keyboard or sequencer. A MIDI note held
during a sung arpeggio will not move until the note
is changed. As well, a single, sustained input note
from you can have a moving harmony arpeggio by
playing it on a keyboard.This mode is for people
who want to arrange their harmony vocals exactly
and have keyboard playing skills. When set to
NOTES, the Harmony DOUBLING parameter
determines interesting layering of the 8 available
harmony voices.

o MIDI NOTES 4 CHAN - This is the same as MIDI

NOTES mode with the difference that each of the
four harmony voices has its own MIDI channel.This
is best when you want the harmony voices to have

fixed pan positions and MIDI pitch bend
movement.

Non-NATURALPLAY Parameter
Changes

Below are descriptions of parameters that are different
when set to the NATURALPLAY modes other than
AUTO INPUT SENSE, GUITAR, MIDI and AUX INPUT
which are identical except for the input device. The
parameters that disappear are not listed. Note that each
of the following modes has it’s own unique Style
selection.

NATURALPLAY = SCALE Mode

KEY & SCALE

This parameter and the SET KEY shortcut (if assigned as
such) set a fixed key and scale that fits your music. A
custom scale can also be selected where the relationship
of each harmony voice to a given input note can be defined
by you. In the majority of presets, the default custom scale is
defined to give drone notes based on the selected key.
