Adjusting the Microphone and Harmony Sound ■ COMPRESSOR This effect holds down the output when the input signal from the microphone exceeds a specified level. This is especially useful for smoothing out vocals that have widely varying dynamics. It effectively "compresses" the signal, making soft parts louder and loud parts softer. • SW (Switch) This turns the Compressor on or off. • TH. (Threshold) This adjusts the input level at which compression begins to be applied. • RATIO This adjusts the compression ratio. • OUT This adjusts the final output level. ■ VOCAL HARMONY CONTROL The following parameters determine how the harmony is controlled. • VOCODER CONTROL The Vocal Harmony effect in Vocoder mode (page 169) is controlled by note data-the notes you play on the keyboard and/or the notes of the song data. This parameter lets you determine which notes are used to control the harmony. SONG CHANNEL MUTE/PLAY When set to "MUTE," the channel selected below (to control Harmony) is muted (turned off) during song playback. OFF/Channels 1-16 When set to "OFF," song data control over harmony is turned off. When set to one of the values 1-16, note data (played from a song on the instrument or an external MIDI sequencer) contained on the corresponding channel is used to control the harmony. This setting is linked to the HARMONY CH setting in the SONG SETTING display (page 137). KEYBOARD OFF Keyboard control over harmony is turned off. UPPER Notes played to the right of the split point control the harmony. LOWER Notes played to the left of the split point control the harmony. • BAL. This lets you set the balance between the lead vocal (your own voice) and Vocal Harmony. Raising this value increases the volume of the Vocal Harmony and decreases that of the lead vocal. When this is set to LH, only the lead vocal is output. Using a Microphone 168 CVP-405/403/401 Owner's Manual
