The Detune styles add a subtle Òout-of-tunenessÓ to the harmony voices.
Because human voices are never perfectly in tune, this function can
ÒhumanizeÓ your harmonies. This feature also works well on programs
where two, three or all four voices are singing the same note (unison), as
the detuning produce a chorusing effect.
The editable parameters in a Detune style are: Amount, Randomness and
Pitch Randomize. These are set individually for each voice.
Amount
This sets the number of cents sharp or flat the harmony voices are. The
amount is editable in 1 cent increments between 100 cents (1 semitone)
above or below the input note.
Randomness
This makes every new harmony note have a slightly different detune
amount. It is variable from zero to 25 cents in 1 cent increments.
Randomness will only reduce the detune amount, not add to it - for
example, a Detune amount of +12 cents with Randomness set to 6 cents
would vary from +6 to +12 with each new note.
Pitch Randomize
Pitch Randomize further humanizes your harmonies by continuously
varying the pitch through the duration of a note. You have a selection of
low, medium or high settings.
To edit the Detune parameters:
1. Use the Data Wheel to select the program you want to edit and press
the Edit button.

fied with loading a different style, refer to the ÒStoring your EditsÓ

rent Detune style or, to create a new Detune style from scratch, load
one of the blank styles (BlnkDetu #) and then press the Edit button.
