Tyros4 Reference Manual
MODE Determines the mode of the Vocal Harmony effect: Chordal, Vocoder or Vocoder-
Mono. Chordal is for conventional vocal harmonies, while Vocoder and Vocoder-
Mono are for Vocoder effects. (Vocoder-Mono is for single-note melodies.) When
Vocoder or Vocoder-Mono is selected, the Chordal Type parameter below is not
available.
CHORDAL TYPE Determines the particular notes and voicings used for generating the vocal harmo-
nies. The harmony and lead notes are also shown as notation in the display. For a list
of the Chordal Types, refer to the Data List on the website.
BALANCE Lets you set the balance between the lead vocal (your own voice) and Vocal Har-
mony. Raising this value increases the volume of the Vocal Harmony and decreases
that of the lead vocal. When this is set to L<H63 (L: Lead Vocal, H: Vocal Har-
mony), only the Vocal Harmony is output; when it is set to L63>H, only the lead
vocal is output.
Vocal Effect Determines the type of effect and the amount of the effect applied to the lead and
harmony vocal sounds.
TYPE Determines the specific type of effect applied to the lead and harmony vocal sounds.
A wide range of reverb, delay, modulation, distortion and other special effects are
available. For a list of the effect types, refer to the Data List on the website.
LEAD Determines the amount of Vocal Effect that is applied to the lead vocal sound.
HARM. (Harmony) Determines the amount of Vocal Effect that is applied to the harmony vocal sound.
REVERB Determines the amount of reverb applied to the overall Vocal Harmony sound, both
lead and harmony.

both lead and harmony.
TRANS. (TRANS- Determines the amount by which the harmony parts are transposed. A setting of "0"
POSE) MODE results in no transposition, while the "Auto" setting results in automatic transposi-
tion. When the mode is set to Vocoder or Vocoder-Mono, this parameter is available.
Settings: 0, Auto, -3 – +3
SESSION TABLE Determines how the harmonies will be voiced, or what type of chord will be used in

KEY ROOT Determines the root key for the transposition. Use this in combination with Key

parameter is set to ScaleDiatonic, this parameter is available.
Settings: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B
