The sophisticated Vocal Processor function allows up to four harmony lines to be added to any sound source (i.e. - voice, guitar or external synth), creating extraordinary vocal harmonies in real time. Three operating modes are available, including Chord (harmonizes input to fit the chords played in Style Mode), Vocoder (harmonizes with the notes played in real time on the keyboard) and Unison (adds up to four notes to the voice with specified detune). In addition, the processor can be controlled by a pre-programmed sequence track, enabling harmony parts to be stored and recalled with songs.
