7. Auto Lower Gender Threshold
Range: 0 - 12 (semitones)
This determines which harmony notes below the melody will be gender-transformed
when Harmony Gender Type is set to "Auto." More specifically, it sets the range or
interval of unchanged harmonies. When set to "0," the gender of all harmony notes
below the melody will be changed. When set to another value, any harmonies within
the interval specified will not be changed. For example, when this is set to 5 semitones,
any harmonies higher than a fourth below remain at the same gender as the original
vocal.
Auto Lower Gender Threshold (set to 5)
Harmonies in this range
change gender.
Used with Auto Upper Gender Threshold above, this gives you flexible control over
the gender of the harmony notes, both above and below the melody.
• This parameter has no effect when Harmony Gender Type is set to "off."
8. Upper Gender Depth
Range: -64 — +63
This determines the quality or character of the harmony notes above the melody that
are set to automatically change gender — according to the Harmony Gender Type
and Auto Upper Gender Threshold settings.
Extreme negative or positive values result in pronounced distortion of the voice qual-
ity. Also, the effect may vary according to the quality, character and pitch of the
actual voice. Experiment with this to find values that sound most natural (or unnatu-
ral, if you prefer).
• This parameter has no effect when Harmony Gender Type is set to "off."
