Quick Guide Singing with a Connected Microphone 3 Turn the Effect for the microphone sound on, if desired. 4 Start song playback. 5 Sing the song while viewing the lyrics on the display. 6 Stop the song. NOTE • The lyrics inidicated on the LCD display can be output via the [RGB OUT]/[VIDEO OUT] terminal. You can have only the lyrics of the song output via the terminal, even when another display is called up. This lets you select other displays and still have the lyrics shown on the monitor. For details, see page 188. Applying harmony to your voice Use the sophisticated Vocal Harmony function to automatically apply harmony to your voice as you sing into the connected microphone. 1 Turn Vocal Harmony on. 2 Press the [VH TYPE SELECT] button to call up the Vocal Harmony type selection display and select one of the types. For this example, "JazzSisters" is selected. 3 Turn the [ACMP] button on. 4 Play and hold down chords in the left-hand section of the keyboard as you sing along with the accompaniment. Split Point The harmony is applied to your voice according to the chord you play. Try out various chords. Chord section NOTE • If you experience distorted or outof-tune sound from the Vocal Harmony feature, your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds (other than your voice)-the Style playback sound from the Tyros2, for example. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Harmony feature. The solution to this problem is to ensure that as little extraneous sound as possible is picked up by your vocal microphone: • Sing as closely to the microphone as possible. • Use a uni-directional microphone. • Turn down the MASTER VOLUME, STYLE volume or SONG volume control. ■ Vocal Harmony Chords Vocal Harmony is triggered by the chords you play. In the example instructions above, the chords played in the style chord section of the keyboard are used to trigger the Vocal Harmony. Depending on the Harmony Mode setting and the particular application, different chords can be used to trigger Vocal Harmony (as listed below). For details, see page 178.
