Display Explanation
My Voice
The melody played on the keyboard is played as the harmony.
The harmony is added to your voice regardless of the pitch.
Duo1 The added harmony matches the chords specified on the
keyboard. Adding harmony to a single voice gives the effect of
two people singing together.
Duo2
Variety
The melody played on the keyboard is played as the harmony.
The harmony added is matched to the pitch; for example, higher
pitches are used for female voices, lower pitches for male voices.
Trio
The added harmony matches the chords specified on the
keyboard. This adds a two-voice harmony that makes it seem that
a trio is singing.
Chord
The added harmony matches the chords specified on the
keyboard.
You can change the way harmonies are added with the Melody
Intelligence type (p. 72).
Unison Sounds like two people singing the same melody.
Oct-Up Adds another voice one octave higher than the original.
Oct-Down Adds another voice one octave lower than the original.
5th Up Adds harmony a fifth above the original.
3rd Up Adds harmony a third above the original.
4th Down Adds harmony a major fourth below the original.
When you use the Harmonist
function, the resonance setting
for the piano (see p. 152) may
sometimes be reset. And the
effects applied to the keyboard
(p. 42) may be canceled.
NOTE
With some Harmonist types,
you may not be able to play
harmony with some of the
vocals on the enclosed CD.
