• MODE
All of the Vocal Harmony types fall into one of three modes, which produce har-
mony in different ways. The harmony effect is dependent on the selected Vocal
Harmony mode, and this parameter determines how the harmony is applied to
your voice. The three modes are described below.
• CHORD
The following parameters determine which data in a recorded song is used for
chord detection.
• Vocal Range
Set this to obtain the most natural vocal harmony, depending on your voice.
■ MIC
The following parameters determine how the microphone sound is controlled.
• MUTE
When set to ON, the microphone sound is turned off.
• VOLUME
Adjusts the output volume of the microphone sound.
AUTO When the [ACMP ON/OFF] or [LEFT] is set to ON and if chord
data exists in the song, the mode is automatically set to
CHORDAL. In all other cases, the mode is set to VOCODER.
VOCODER The harmony notes are determined by the notes you play on the
keyboard and/or song data. You can specify whether the Vocoder
effect is controlled by your keyboard performance or by the Song
data (page 172).
CHORDAL The harmony notes are determined by the following three types
of chord: chords played in the chord section of the keyboard
(with the [ACMP] turned on), chords played in the LEFT Voice
section of the keyboard (with the [ACMP] turned off and the
[LEFT] turned on), and chords contained in song data for control-
ling the harmony. (Not available if the song does not contain any
chord data.)
OFF Chords are not detected from the song data.
XF Chords of XF format are used for the Vocal Harmony.
1–16 Chords are detected from note data in the specified song chan-
nel.
