■Vocal Harmony Parameters
Chordal Type/Vocoder Type | Determines how the harmony notes are applied. |
Harmony Gender Type | Can be set to “Off” or “Auto”. When “Auto”, the gender of the harmony sound is changed automati- |
| cally. |
Lead Gender Type | Determines whether and how the gender of the lead vocal sound (i.e., the direct microphone |
| sound) will be changed. When “Off” no gender change occurs. When ”Unison”, “Male” or “Female” |
| is selected the corresponding gender change is applied to the lead vocal. (In this case the number |
| of harmony notes which can be produced in addition to the lead vocal is reduced to one.) |
Lead Gender Depth | Adjusts the degree of lead vocal gender change produced when one of the Lead Gender Types |
| (above) is selected. |
Lead Pitch Correction | When “Correct” is selected the pitch of the lead vocal is shifted in precise semitone steps. This |
| parameter is only effective when one of the Lead Gender Types is selected. |
Auto Upper Gender Threshold | Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of |
| semitones above the lead vocal pitch. |
Auto Lower Gender Threshold | Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of |
| semitones below the lead vocal pitch. |
Upper Gender Depth | Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes higher than the Auto Upper Gender |
| Threshold. |
Lower Gender Depth | Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes lower than the Auto Lower Gender |
| Threshold. |
Vibrato Depth | Sets the depth of vibrato applied to the harmony sound. Also affects the lead vocal sound if a Lead |
| Gender Type is selected. |
Vibrato Rate | Sets the speed of the vibrato effect. |
Vibrato Delay | Specifies the length of the delay before the vibrato effect begins when a note is produced. |
Harmony1 Volume | Sets the volume of the first harmony note. |
Harmony2 Volume | Sets the volume of the second harmony note. |
Harmony3 Volume | Sets the volume of the third harmony note. |
Harmony1 Pan | Specifies the stereo (pan) position of the first harmony note. When “Random” is selected the ste- |
| reo position of the sound will change randomly whenever the keyboard is played. |
Harmony2 Pan | Specifies the stereo (pan) position of the second harmony note. When “Random” is selected the |
| stereo position of the sound will change randomly whenever the keyboard is played. |
Harmony3 Pan | Specifies the stereo (pan) position of the third harmony note. When “Random” is selected the ste- |
| reo position of the sound will change randomly whenever the keyboard is played. |
Harmony1 Detune | Detunes the first harmony note by the specified number of cents. |
Harmony2 Detune | Detunes the second harmony note by the specified number of cents. |
Harmony3 Detune | Detunes the third harmony note by the specified number of cents. |
Pitch to Note | When “ON” the lead vocal sound “plays” the 9000Pro tone generator system. (However, dynamic |
| changes in the vocal sound do not affect the volume of the tone generator.) |
Pitch to Note Part | Determines which of the 9000Pro parts will be controlled by the lead vocal when the Pitch to Note |
| parameter is “ON”. |
