HARMONIST

Chain	Palette

Harmonist is an effect where the amount of shifting is adjusted according to an analysis of the guitar input, allowing you to create harmony based on diatonic scales.

Because of the need to analyze the pitch, chords (two or more sounds played simultaneously) cannot be played. Be sure to mute all the other strings and play only one note at a time.
When you are to play the next string while a certain sound is still playing, mute the previous sound and then play the next one with a clear attack. If the unit cannot detect the attack, it may not sound correctly.
The sensitivity may vary according to the guitar’s TONE knob and pickup type.

Parameter	Value	Explanation
ON/OFF	OFF, ON	Turns this effect on/off.
VOICE	Selects the number of voices for the pitch shift sound.
	1 VOICE	One-voice pitch-shifted sound output in mono.
	2 MONO	Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (HR1, HR2) output in mono.
	2 STEREO	Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (HR1, HR2) output through left and right channels.
1: HARMONY 2: HARMONY	-2oct, –+2oct, USER	This determines the pitch of the sound added to the input sound, when you are making a harmony. It allows you to set it by up to 2 octaves higher or lower than the input sound. When the scale is set to USER, this parameter sets the user scale number to be used. Ø“USER SCALEの設定”
1: LEVEL 2: LEVEL	0–100	Adjusts the volume of the harmony sound.
1: PRE-DELAY 2: PRE-DELAY	0–300ms, BPM ŀ–Ō	Adjusts the time from when the direct sound is heard until the harmonist sounds are heard. Normally you can leave this set at 0 ms. When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to the value of the “MASTER BPM” specified for each memory. This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the song. If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
1: FEEDBACK	0–100	Adjusts the feedback amount of the harmonist sound.
KEY	C (Am)–B (G#m)	The key setting corresponds to the key of the song (#, b) as follows.
DIRECT LEVEL	0–100	Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
BPM	40–250	Adjusts the BPM value for each memory. BPM (beats per minute) indicates the number of quarter note beats that occur each minute. When you have an external MIDI device connected, the MASTER BPM synchronizes to the external MIDI devices tempo, making it impossible to set the MASTER BPM. To enable setting of the MASTER BPM, set “SYNC CLOCK” to “INTERNAL”.
