On the DGX 670, is it possible to get harmony on both the main voice and the layer voice at the same time?

Hi flailman,

As far as I know, the same harmony notes on both keyboard parts is not possible with the DGX-670.

However, if you call up the "Keyboard Harmony" display ("Voice Effect > Keyboard Harmony > Type"), you could got to "Detail" and set the Assign to "Multi" there. Here is the description of this setting (quote from page 9 in the DGX-670 Reference Manual):

Keyboard Harmony > Detail > Assign
This parameter is available for all types with the exception of Multi
Assign. This lets you determine the keyboard part via which the harmony/
echo notes will be sounded.
• Auto: Applies the effect to the part which is turned on. When the both
parts are on, the Main part is given priority over the Layer part.
• Multi: When both parts are on, the note played on the keyboard is
sounded by Main part and the harmonies (effect) are divided to the
Main and Layer parts.
When only one part is on, the note played on the
keyboard and effect are sounded by that part.

• Main, Layer: Applies the effect to the selected part (Main or Layer).


Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Chris

This does help. Found it.  Presume on Multi, the type chosen, for example Block, is applied to both voices.  Tried it and got some strange results.  Need to try again with less accompaniment going on to help my ear discern what it is hearing.  Very helpful.

Thanks for your kind feedback, flailman! I'm glad to could help you.

By the way, you can also use Keyboard Harmony without a Style (when ACMP is OFF and the LEFT part is ON).


Best regards,
Chris

You're welcome flailman! :)

Just to be safe: If you don't have the DGX-670 Reference Manual mentioned above, you can download it here:
