Chapter 8 Parameters Guide
Harmonist is an effect where the amount of shifting is adjusted
according to an analysis of the bass input, allowing you to
create harmonics based on diatonic scales.
• Because of the need to analyze the pitch, chords (two or more sounds
played simultaneously) cannot be played. Be sure to mute all the other
strings and play only one note at a time.
• 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 bass’s TONE knob and pickup
type.
*1 HR1 and HR2 are set individually.
*2 Effective with User selected for Harm parameter.
HARMONIST
Parameter/
Range Explanation
Voice
Selects the number of voices for the pitch shift sound.
1-Voice
One-voice pitch-shifted sound output in
monaural.
2-Mono
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (HR1, HR2)
output in monaural.
2-Stereo
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (HR1, HR2)
output through left and right channels.
HR1/HR2 *1
Harm (Harmony) *1
This determines the pitch of the sound added to the input sound,
when you are making a harmony.
-2oct–+2oct, User
It allows you to set it by up to 2 octaves
higher or lower than the input sound.
When the scale is set to USER, this parame-
ter sets the user scale number to be used.
PreDl (Pre Delay) *1
0ms–300ms,
BPM –BPM
Adjusts the time from when the direct
sound is heard until the harmonist sounds
are heard. Normally you can leave this set
at 0ms.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the “Master BPM” (p. 122) specified for each patch.
This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the
tempo of the song.
If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
Fbk (Feedback)
0–100
Adjusts the feedback amount of the har-
monist sound.
Level *1
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the harmony sound.
MasterKey
C (Am)–B (G#m) This sets the key for the HARMONIST.
The key setting corresponds to the key of the song (#, b ) as follows.
DirectLev (Direct Level)
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

Specify the note name of the output sound. The minus (-) and
plus (+) symbols indicate sounds above or below the set note name.
Triangles next to the note names indicate octaves.
One downward-pointing triangle indicates a note one octave below
the note displayed; two triangles indicates a two-octave drop.
One upward-pointing triangle indicates a note one octave above the
note displayed; two triangles indicates a two-octave rise.
Note Detect
Off, On
When set to “On,” the input sounds are ana-
lyzed, and the note names are then input auto-
matically.
Pressing [CATEGORY/ENTER] switches On
and Off the Note Detect function.
