EFFECT

HARMONIST

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 .
* 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 .
* You cannot use the Harmonist effect with audio input via USB .
