Since in these cases the guitarist is usually fingering the 4
th
note and muting it, if you want to see what the 4
th
note of
the voicing would be you can set this option by pressing the [Settings] button in the Guitar window and checking the
box for “Show muted note of guitar style comping” in the Guitar Settings dialog.
Note: Remember that for any style you see with an exclamation point (!) in the style name (an intelligent guitar style) you can
view and hear the guitar part played on the guitar fretboard as described above.
The Harmony Maker
The Harmony Maker editing module allows you to create (or edit) your own harmonies. This can be used in the
program to harmonize melodies, solos, or live playing on the Thru channel.
Sophisticated options control usage of passing harmonies (diatonic, dominant approach and chromatic), drop octave
voicings (e.g. drop 2), octave doubling, patch selection, and more. An unlimited number of harmonies can be
created and can be saved to disk as harmonies files. Changes in harmonies can be heard “live” as a song is playing.
To get to the Harmony Maker you can open either the Melody [M] or Thru [T]
dialog to select a harmony, and then click on the [Edit] button. Or you could go
to the Harmony menu and select Edit Current Harmonies File.
The Harmony Maker screen allows you to design a harmony.
This harmony can be used in the future for the melody or the thru harmony part.
Each harmony can use up to 3 channels, Harmony Channel A, B, and C.
If your harmony only has one instrument, then you will use Channel A for all the voices. If your harmony uses
Flute and Bass, then you could use Flute on Channel A, and Bass on Channel B.
Let's make the Harmony called Shearing Quintet. The Shearing Quintet was a famous Jazz quintet with a distinctive
sound that consisted of:
- Piano playing a 4-part harmony with the melody doubled one octave below.
- Vibes doubling the melody.
- Electric Guitar doubling the melody one octave below.
