You will need:
o A vocal harmony processor with a MIDI input that
can be used to control "Chords" or "Chordal"
harmony. Products from TC-Helicon, Digitech®,
and Korg® fall into this category. Additionally, some
of these products offer "Scale" or "Scalic" harmony
with the ability to change key and scale from MIDI
input. Consult the Compatibility Chart in this
manual for more detail on supported harmony
processors.
o An electric guitar or acoustic guitar that is
electrified with a pickup. *
o A vocal microphone with a cardioid or super-
cardioid pickup pattern. This minimizes audio
interference that may interfere with the proper
tracking of the harmony processor.
o Audio and XLR mic cables, a PA system, mic stand
etc.
* Body resonances with acoustic guitar soundboard
pickups can negatively affect performance. Under-
saddle pickups are recommended.
