For lighter harmonies, choose a Trio or Duet harmony. Words such as “Mix”, “Up”, and “Spread” will give you further clues to the function and sound of the harmony.
Make sure to adjust both your mic input volume (found beside the Mic Input Jack) and the Mic Level parameter in the Mic Effects menu. Also, adjust the Harmony Level (found by pressing the EDIT button in the Harmony Type screen) for the best results.
