Vocal Harmony
■
Selecting a VOCAL HARMONY Type
..................
The VOCAL HARMONY types are selected via the FULL
MIXING CONSOLE EFFECT TYPE
display in the same way
as the other PSR-8000 effects — see page 42 for details.
■
Producing the VOCAL HARMONY Effect
...........................................................................................................
The vocal harmony effect will be added to your voice. Depending on the selected VOCAL HARMONY type, you
may also have to use the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT feature and/or play the PSR-8000 keyboard to produce
appropriate harmony (see “The Vocal Harmony Modes”, page 85).
●
Using Music Software With a Vocal Harmony Track
When using commercially available software which includes a Vocal HarmonyL track, press the [SONG
SELECT] button to go to the
SONG SELECT
display and use the
VOCAL HARM.
LCD dial to specify the
Vocal Harmony track. Then go to the FULL
MIXING CONSOLE EFFECT TYPE
display by pressing the
[VOCAL HARMONY (8)] button while holding the [DIRECT ACCESS] button, and select one of the
“
Karaok****
” VOCAL HARMONY types. (When using an XG song which includes a Vocal Harmony
track, the appropriate settings will be made automatically when the song is selected.)
Editing the Vocal Harmony Parameters
The VOCAL HARMONY effect has a range of parameters
which can be edited to customize the sound to suit your
individual needs. The parameters are accessed via the FULL
MIXING CONSOLE EFFECT PARAMETER
display as de-
scribed on page 42.
The effect USER SET function makes it possible to save up
to 3 effect setups for the VOCAL HARMONY feature — details
on page 43.
The Vocal Harmony Parameters
Type
Determines how the harmony notes are applied. The Types are divided into four categories or “modes”:
Chordal, Vocoder, Detune, and Chromatic — see “The Vocal Harmony Modes”, below, for details. The
available values will depend on the mode to which the selected Type belongs.
Harmony Gender
Can be set to “Off” or “Auto”. When “Auto”, the gender of the harmony sound is changed automatically.
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).
