Guitar Performance Tips
To ensure that the harmony voices follow your guitar
playing closely, it’s best to play as cleanly as you can.Also,
at the beginning of your song, it’s important to play a
chord if you want to sing right at the beginning.
Your guitar should be well-tuned to the onboard tuner
or an external one set to A=440 Hz. If the song section
you want vocal harmony on has fast chord changes,
single note runs or very slow arpeggios, you can use
Manual mode to produce harmony.
Singing Performance Tips
The more in-tune you sing, the better the harmonies will
sound. There is a slight amount of pitch correction on
the harmony voices but it’s mostly up to you! Try to
ensure that your amp or monitor is not facing directly
into your mic as this can confuse Harmony-G.
Can I Use Alternate Tunings On My Guitar?
Alternate tunings e.g. drop D, DADGAD, etc. are okay.
The most important notes of your chord, as far as
Harmony-G is concerned, are the chord root and the
third, so make sure these notes are clearly voiced.Your
guitar can be tuned to alternate tunings as long as you
are in tune with the onboard tuner.
