The best way to accomplish what you need is to plug the mic into a separate harmonizer (or even record it dry directly into your daw with no FX or VH). On a Genos1/2/Tyros5, you can route music and vocals to separate channels, you can also do this on the sx900/sx920 (but only 4 outs instead of 6). However, even then, the Genos/Tyros only assign 1 set of LR to instruments, 1 set to vocals *and* harmony together;
So in either case, if you want to record them live but still separately, one workaround is hard panning main to 0 and VH to 127 (not ideal for what's usually a stereo image of VH) *or* record them in 2 passes .
Kind of a shame, really, since the G1/G2/T5 are capable of 6 separate output routings simultaneously (3 sets of stereo) which would be ideal for handling the situation you describe, but i can't find a way to separate VH from mic (hmm I'm going to email Yamaha about this right now, odd thing to not include); *unless* you send the mic out to a mixer first. The sx900/sx920 both have 4 line outs, so you *can* do a workaround:
The only fully functional workaround I can think of that would accomplish what you're asking is to send the mic to a mixer, then send that signal back into the keyboard mic input (make sure you switch it to line, not mic gain!!), crank vh to full harmony (no original mic sound) and route *that* stereo output of the VH to your main separately from the instrument voices.
You'll have to go into LIne Outs and route the mic to sub 1/2 to do this.
