By singing into the microphone while you press chords on the keyboard, you can add harmonies to the sound of your voice.
Selecting a Vocal Designer Sound
To play the Vocal Designer section, press one of the Vocal Designer sound buttons so its indicator is lit (red).
When a Vocal Designer sound is selected, that sound button’s indicator will light red.
A backing chorus will automatically be added to your vocal.
Harmony is automatically produced according to the melody you sing (the pitch detected from the microphone) and the chord
that is detected from the keyboard.
In addition, the harmony will proceed according to the melody you sing.
Try out the sound as you adjust the [Harmony] knob and [Ambience] knob (p. 23, p. 25).
Sound Explanation
Duet
This produces two-part harmony, as though two people were singing.
(When a keyboard is not connected via MIDI, pitches a fourth lower will be generated to create the harmony.)
Trio 1
This produces three-part harmony, as though three people were singing.
One voice at a higher pitch and one voice at a lower pitch will be created, relative to the pitch of the direct sound from the
microphone.
(When a keyboard is not connected via MIDI, pitches a fourth lower and an octave lower will be generated to create the harmony.)
Trio 2
This produces three-part harmony, as though three people were singing.
Two voices at a higher pitch will be created, relative to the pitch of the direct sound from the microphone.
(When a keyboard is not connected via MIDI, pitches a fourth lower and a fifth higher will be generated to create the harmony.)
If the higher-pitched harmony sounds are higher than a certain pitch, they will exceed the range that the VP-7 is able to produce;
if this occurs, the sound will be produced in a lower range.
Performing with Vocal Designer
In order for the VP-7 to recognize the chord
automatically, you must play at least three
notes.
For example, to specify a C Major chord, play
C, E, and G.
Example: C-Major scale
Duet
Trio 1
Trio 2
• The solid black note symbols indicate the pitches
detected from the microphone (these notes will
not be produced *1).
• The hollow note symbols indicate the generated
harmony (Vocal Designer generates these notes).
*1
If the [Harmony] knob is turned to the right of
center, the solid black notes in the example (the
same pitch as your voice) will be overlaid onto the
direct sound and output.
