The lyrics, music scores (PSRS900/S700), and text data (PSRS900) can also be displayed in the LCD. Vocal Harmony (PSR-S900) Add automatic vocal backing to your singing (page 184) The amazing Vocal Harmony feature (on the PSR-S900) automatically produces backup vocal harmonies for lead vocals that you sing into a microphone. You can even change the gender of the harmony voices - for example, letting you add female backup to your own male voice (or vice versa). 12 PSR-S900/S700 Owner's Manual STYLE Back up your performance with Auto Accompaniment (page 46, 106) Playing a chord with your left hand automatically plays the auto accompaniment backing. Select an accompaniment style - such as pop, jazz, Latin, etc. - and let the PORTATONE be your backing band! DIGITAL RECORDING Record your performances (page 43, 147) With the powerful and easy-to-use song recording features, you can record your own keyboard performances, and create your own complete, fully orchestrated compositions - which you can then save to the USER drive or a USB storage device for future recall. And since the recorded data is MIDI, you can easily edit your songs, too.
