effect, but will be modified to better match the notes being detected by Live

Adapt. If you don’t know the key of the song, you can choose “Chromatic” for

the Pitch FX KEY, and let the Live Adapt feature choose the most likely notes

to output.

HARMONY

This option has three settings:

• Preset

With this option selected, the Harmony key will not adapt and will be set

according to the "KEY" parameter setting in the Harmony Edit menu.

• Full Mix

With this option selected, the audio signal from the built-in microphone or

Aux In jack is used to analyze the musical content of the background music in

order to create harmonies that match the overall key of the song. This option

differs from the Preset option in that the harmonies can change during the

course of a song as the adaptation senses changes in the song structure. It is

best suited for situations where the internal mic or Aux In signal consists of

a mix of instruments–for example when the Live FX is used on stage with a

band.

• CleanGtr

With this option selected, the audio signal from the built-in microphone

or Aux In jack is analyzed using our guitar chord recognition and harmony

generation algorithms that react in real time to guitar chord changes. This

option uses the classic musIQ harmony algorithm and is best suited for

situations where a clean guitar signal is being sent to the Aux In jack. If you

aren’t using an Aux-In signal but are playing an acoustic guitar close to the Live

FX, you may want to select this Harmony option.

TEMPO

This option has three settings:

• Preset

With this option selected, the tempo will not adapt and will be set according

to the "TEMPO" parameter setting in the Delay/Modulation Edit menus.

• Wide

With this option selected, the audio analyzed by the built-in microphone or

Aux In jack is used to modify the Delay/Modulation "TEMPO" parameter,

within a wide range around the currently set Delay/Modulation TEMPO setting.

With this option selected, the TEMPO will be allowed to vary between 2/3

rds

and 4/3

rds

the rate of the currently set TEMPO–for example, a TEMPO setting

of 120 BPM would be allowed to vary between 80 BPM and 160 BPM.

• Narrow

With this option selected, the audio analyzed by the built-in microphone or

Aux In jack is used to modify the Delay/Modulation "TEMPO" parameter,

within a narrow range around the currently set Delay/Modulation TEMPO

setting. The TEMPO will be allowed to vary between approximately 85% and

115% of the currently set TEMPO–for example, a TEMPO setting of 120 BPM

would be allowed to vary between about 102 BPM and about 138 BPM.
