Select a Vocal
Harmony type.
Determines how the harmony notes are applied.
Can be set to "Off" or "Auto". When "Auto", the gender of the harmony sound is changed automati-
cally.
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.)
Adjusts the degree of lead vocal gender change produced when one of the Lead Gender Types
(above) is selected.
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.
Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of
semitones above the lead vocal pitch.
Gender change will occur when the harmony pitch reaches or exceeds the specified number of
semitones below the lead vocal pitch.
Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes higher than the Auto Upper Gender
Threshold.
Adjusts the degree of gender change applied to harmony notes lower than the Auto Lower Gender
Threshold.
Sets the depth of vibrato applied to the harmony sound. Also affects the lead vocal sound if a Lead
Gender Type is selected.

Specifies the length of the delay before the vibrato effect begins when a note is produced.
Sets the volume of the first harmony note.
Sets the volume of the second harmony note.

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.
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.
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.
Detunes the first harmony note by the specified number of cents.
Detunes the second harmony note by the specified number of cents.
Detunes the third harmony note by the specified number of cents.
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.)
Determines which of the 9000Pro parts will be controlled by the lead vocal when the Pitch to Note
parameter is "ON".
