Mic Compressor; Vocal Harmony Mode - Yamaha 9000Pro Owner's Manual

Mic Compressor ....................................................

Compression is an essential effect for a vocal microphone. It allows singing to be reproduced more
clearly and smoothly by boosting the level of soft signals and lowering the level of loud signals.
Press the [MIC SETUP] button to access the Mic Compressor. Try the singing with the compressor
effect turned on and then compare singing with it turned off. Notice the difference?

Vocal Harmony Mode ............................................

Vocal Harmony mode can be set to either Chordal mode (harmony is determined by chords played
in the auto accompaniment or by chords contained in song data) or Vocoder mode (harmony is
determined by the notes you play on the keyboard or by the Vocal Harmony track of a song). When
this mode is set to AUTO, the Vocal Harmony setting changes automatically according to the situa-
tion. For example, if you play back a song file that contains a Vocal Harmony track, the Vocal Har-
mony setting will automatically switch to Vocoder mode. To access the Vocal Harmony setting,
press the [MIC SETUP] button.
