The System section of parameters provide a variety of additional settings for the
Harmony effect, including MIDI channel settings for the harmony and melody, as
well as independent volume, pan, and detune controls for each harmony note. For
general information on the Harmony effect and how to use it, see page 8.
Harmony Channel (Harmony Ch)
Settings: off, 1 - 16
This determines the MIDI channel over which the Harmony effect is controlled. For
example, when this is set to the same value as the MIDI transmit channel of a con-
nected MIDI keyboard or sequencer, you can use that device to “play” harmonies.

Harmony Mute
(Not selectable from MU128 panel controls.)
Settings: Off, On
This determines whether the harmony notes are muted or not. For the harmony notes
to be heard, this should be set to “off.” To mute the harmony notes, set this to “on.”
This parameter is intended primarily for sequencer applications, letting you effec-
tively turn the harmonies on and off as needed within a song.
Melody Channel (Melody Ch)
Settings: off, 1 - 16
This determines the MIDI channel over which the lead sound of the Harmony effect
is controlled. For example, when this is set to the same value as the MIDI transmit
channel of a connected MIDI keyboard or sequencer, you can use that device to
control the pitch of the lead sound. (See “About the Lead and Harmony Voices” on
page 15.)
Harmony 1 - 3 Volume
(Not selectable from MU128 panel controls.)
Range: 0 — 127
This determines the volume of the selected harmony note (1, 2, or 3).
Harmony 1 - 3 Pan
(Not selectable from MU128 panel controls.)
Settings: Random, -63 (full left) — 0 (center) — +63 (full right)
This determines the stereo position of the selected harmony note (1, 2, or 3). The
“Random” setting randomly assigns the selected harmony note to a pan position.
Harmony 1 - 3 Detune
(Not selectable from MU128 panel controls.)
Range: -64 — +63
This determines the amount of detuning for the selected harmony note (1, 2, or 3). A
setting of “0” results in no detuning; positive and negative settings adjust the pitch of
the harmony note up or down, respectively.
