Lead Gender

Adjusts the degree of lead vocal gender change produced when one of the Lead Gender Types (above)
is selected.

Lead Pitch

When “Correct” is selected the pitch of the lead vocal is shifted in precise semitone increments. This
parameter is only effective when one of the Lead Gender Types is selected.

Auto Upper

Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of
semitones above the lead vocal pitch.

Auto Lower

Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of
semitones below the lead vocal pitch.

Upper Gender

Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes higher than the Auto Upper Gender
Threshold.

Lower Gender

Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes lower than the Auto Lower Gender
Threshold.

Lead/Harmony

Sets the balance between the lead vocal and harmony.

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.

Harmony1 Pan

Specifies the stereo (pan) position of the first harmony note. When “Random” is selected the stereo
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.

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.

Harmony Part

This parameter only appears when a Vocoder Type is selected. When “Upper” or “Lower” is selected,
notes played on the corresponding section of the keyboard specify the Vocoder harmony notes.

Pitch to Note

When “ON” the lead vocal sound “plays” the PSR-8000 tone generator system (dynamics, however, are
not applied).

Pitch to Note Part

Determines which of the PSR-8000 parts will be controlled by the lead vocal when the Pitch to Note
parameter is “ON”.

Harmony Reverb

Sets the depth of the reverb effect for the harmony sound.

Harmony Chorus

Sets the depth of the chorus effect for the harmony sound.

■

The Vocal Harmony Modes

...............................................................................................................................................

All of the VOCAL HARMONY Types fall into one of four basic categories — “modes” — which produce harmony
in different ways. The mode of the selected Type also determines the values available for the Type parameter in the

EFFECT TYPE PARAMETER 

display. Depending on the mode of the selected Type, the Type parameter name will

appear on the display as “

Chordal Type

”, “

VocoderType

”, “

DetuneType

”, or “

ChromaticType

”.
