On the Harmonizer, ensure that 
MIDI 
is 
enabled
 and 
system 
exclusive
 is 
on
.  You will find these parameters on the 
[midi]
 
menu page in the 
SETUP
 area.  
 
If you find that your PC is “unhappy” about the speed of 
transmission (as in “it’s too fast!”), lower the 
sysex speed
 
parameter on the “second” 
[midi]
 menu page in the 
SETUP
 area.  
This will dumb down the Harmonizer’s transmission speed.  
Establishing a Serial Connection 
Assuming you’ve launched VSigfile, choose Comms under the Preferences menu.   
 
Choose Serial as the Comms Type in the dialog box that opens.   
 
Choose Serial Config to select the comms port you would like to use. 
 
You must also ensure that the 
baud rate
, the 
data bits
, the 
stop bits
, and the 
parity
 agree on the 
Harmonizer and VSigfile.  These parameters are found on the “third” 
[midi]
 menu page in the 
SETUP 
area 
in the Harmonizer (as shown above right) and in Serial Config under the Preferences menu in VSigfile (as 
shown above left) .  The higher you set the 
baud rate
 the faster the communication will be between the 
Harmonizer and your computer.  However, most computers have a ceiling above which errors occur.  You 
should set the 
baud rate
 as high as you can (on both machines) without incurring errors. On the 
Harmonizer, ensure that 
serial 
is 
enabled
 and 
system exclusive
 is 
on
.  You will find these parameters 
on the 
[midi]
 menu page in the 
SETUP
 area. 
Connect your computer’s serial port to the Harmonizer’s serial port and ensure that no other device on your 
computer is hogging the comms port (the modem is a common offender on the author’s computer).  
 
 
 If VSigfile is unable to access its assigned comms port, you will get the 
message shown to the right.  It means that there is a device (or another 
program) hogging the comms port or that there is something wrong with 
the selected comms port.  Either way, you’ve got a problem to ferret out.  
 
VSigfile will itself  hog the comms port.  To “disconnect” VSigfile from the comms port (so that you can 
use another device), choose Disconnect from the Midi menu.
