Vocal Harmony - Adding Harmony Vocals and Synth Vocoder to Your Singing  CARRIER (set by [A]/[B] buttons) Selects the musical instrument sound used as the source (Carrier) for the Synth Vocoder. (The Carrier serves as the basic sound over which the vocal characteristics are applied.)  VOCODER parameters (selected by [C] or [D] button) [1 ] ATTACK [2 ] RELEASE Determines the attack time of the Synth Vocoder sound. The higher the value, the slower the attack. Settings: 1ms - 200ms Determines the release time of the Synth Vocoder sound. The higher the value, the slower the decay.

Settings: 0 - 127  FORMANT parameters (selected by [C] or [D] button) [5 ] SHIFT [6 ] OFFSET Determines the amount (in BPF) by which the cutoff frequency value of the BPFs (for the Inst Input) is shifted. This parameter can be used to change the character of the Vocoder sound. Settings: -2, -1, +0, +1, +2 Adjusts the cutoff frequencies of all BPFs (for the Inst Input) finely.

Vocoder. (The Carrier serves as the basic sound over which the vocal characteris-
tics are applied.)

FREQ. (Frequency)
Determines the HPF cutoff frequency for the microphone input sound. Setting this

(for the Inst Input) is shifted. This parameter can be used to change the character of
the Vocoder sound.
