Plug ‘n’ Go
If you own a TC-Helicon product shown as Auto-
compatible in the Compatibility Chart, and you’ve
connected both MIDI cables to the respective MIDI Ins
and Outs as detailed in the Quick Start section, then
HarmonyControl will operate in Auto mode and you’re
finished with the setup!
When first powered up, HarmonyControl sends out a
MIDI signal to see if any of the Auto-compatible units is
connected. If it gets the correct reply, HarmonyControl
will configure itself automatically to respond to preset
changes you make on your processor. You can then use
the preset change controls on your harmony processor
to switch between Scale and Chord based presets and
employ the sounds of their different harmony motion
in your songs.
The beauty of this is that once you’ve made the
connections, most of the time you can leave
HarmonyControl turned on and forget about it while
you run your harmony processor as you always have by
changing presets and turning its Harmony Mute on and
off when needed.
For the times when you prefer the sound of a fixed
key and scale, and your harmony processor is listed as
having the Scale Select feature in the Compatibility
Chart, you can use the Key footswitch function,
described on the next page.
