3.1 HARMONY MODE

musIQ™

This option selects the musIQ technology for the Harmony Mode. musIQ eliminates the need

to enter key and scale information into the product as it listens to the notes/chords played

on a guitar or keyboard and automatically adjusts the harmony voices to assure that they fit

with the music being played. Real-time processing discerns the individual notes, chords and

key signatures that are played to automatically generate appropriate vocal harmonies that

complement the lead vocal. With musIQ, you can focus on your live singing and playing

performance, and discard song programming once and for all.

The musIQ Harmony Mode can be selected using this sub-menu, or by using the Harmony

Mode musIQ Guitar or musIQ MIDI buttons on the front panel. If the menu is used to select

the musIQ Harmony Mode, assure that the correct Guitar musIQ or MIDI musIQ Harmony

Mode button is selected on the front panel to match your application. Once musIQ Harmony

Mode has been selected, the musIQ Harmony Voicings must be defined either by using the

options found in the Voicings Patch menu or in the musIQ Voicings menu in the Advanced Edit

Mode menu.

Other Harmony Modes

The following Harmony Modes do not implement the musIQ technology, but rather provide 4

unique methods of creating harmony. These Harmony Modes can either be selected here, or by

using the Harmony Mode buttons on the front panel for Other (Menu). Note that when using

the Other (Menu) button, only the non-musIQ Harmony Modes are listed.

In the examples for the following Other Harmony Modes, the C Major scale depicted below

will be used.

Shift

Shift Harmony Mode changes the Harmony Voices pitch by a fixed number of semitones

in the Chromatic 12 Semitone Scale from the Lead Vocal. Once the Shift Harmony Mode

is selected, the Shift Voicings must be defined in the Advanced Edit Mode menu.

This Shift Harmony Mode Chromatic Harmonizing is considered non-intelligent since

the Harmony Voicing is not using Scale or Key information and is simply creating parallel
