About the PLG100-VH

The PLG100-VH provides a sophisticated harmony effect that takes the sound of your

voice (via a microphone and the A/D inputs) and reproduces it as a harmony vocal, provid-

ing up to four-part harmonies (including your original voice).

Once it is connected, the PLG100-VH automatically becomes another effect block (Har-

mony) in the tone generator/sound card, and can be applied to one of the Parts. Although

Harmony can be applied to normal instrument Parts, it is designed specifically to work

with the A/D inputs.

You can pre-program the pitch interval of the harmony, or you can “play” the harmony

from your connected MIDI keyboard (or sequencer), and even have the harmony interval

change, depending on the chord you play. As long as your own voice is in pitch and you

play the appropriate chords, the PLG100-VH ensures that the harmony “voices” will be

enharmonically correct and stay in pitch with the chord changes of the song. It also in-

cludes a “gender changer” effect that turns a male voice into a female voice (or vice versa),

and a vibrato effect that automatically adds a warm, natural vibrato to your voice.

For detailed instructions on installing the PLG100-VH, refer to the owner’s manual of the

XG-Plug-in-compatible “mother” device (e.g., MU128, SW1000XG, etc.).
