the beginning of the harmony event map.
AUTO:
After the specified point in the song, the backing chorus
is automatically added in accordance with the rhythm
arrangement's chord map.

which you want the backing chorus to start with the
TIME/VALUE dial.

You cannot change the time of the harmony event at the
start of the song.

the first voice with the TIME/VALUE dial.
NOTE:

The first voice is not played after the specified point in
the song.

After the specified point in the song, the voice is played
in accordance with the rhythm arrangement's chord
map.
C, C#, –A#, B
After the specified point in the song, the voice is played
at the specified pitch.
In case of "+" is added to "AUTO" or note, it sounds one
octave up.
In case of "-" is added to "AUTO" or note, it sounds one
octave down.
7. Specify the settings for "VOICE2" and "VOICE3" in
the same manner.

10. Move the cursor to "VOICE1" and specify "OFF."
11. Specify "OFF" for "VOICE2" and "VOICE3" in the
same manner.
12. Have the Recorder play the song from the beginning.
When the harmony event specifies the note name in
VOICE (1–3), the backing chorus is first added at the
point in the song specified in Step 5, then ends at the
point specified in Step 9.
13. To delete any unnecessary harmony events, move the
cursor to the event and press [F3] (DELETE).
The harmony event is deleted.
You cannot delete the harmony event at the beginning of
the song. If this harmony event is unneeded, rather than
deleting it, just set the function to "OFF."
14. Repeat Steps 4–13 as needed to specify the backing
chorus.
15. To save the harmony events you have input, save the
song (p. 70).
You can only save a Harmony Event Map to a single
song. Even if you switch the patch with the harmony
sequence, the Harmony Event Map remains
unchanged.
