Harmonic Pitch Voice Interval 1 & 2 knobs put up User Scale 1 & 2, Octave +/- 1&2 User Scale 1 & 2 - ok.
Edit User Scale 1 & 2 put up knob-controllable Steps 0-11 - ok.
But still I can't understand how it works or is supposed to work. And, frankly, it doesn't.
Googled for this but failed to find answers. Tutorials only play around with natural maj/min harmonization, but that part is quite clear.
I presumed Step 0 would be the Root note. Then Steps 1-11 would be semitones (chord degrees and chromatics between them) whithin an octave, and the readings -36...0...36 of the Step knobs would probably be semitones of the additional Voice 1 or 2 respectively laid off the current Step, whithin Octaves -2...+2, 'zero' denoting an unison of the Step. That's a bit odd, but at least I can make sense of it. EDIT: I don't know what happened, but the Rig with the effect just disappeared from the Performance (I hadn't stored it because it wasn't working anyway), I had a notification there'd been a communicarion error. I had to redo it from start andd this time it worked.
Nope, it didn't work
I needed a E harmonic minor scale with a high -7 (basically both 7s but one above and the other below) with an added Voice in 3rds above. I set Step 0 to 3 ... Step 10 to 4, Step 11 to 3, and set all out-of-scale (chromatic) notes at 0, as I didn't want them harmonized. Most of the scale worked, but the +7 was left not harmonized, and a few other degrees received a weird harmonization that didn't correspond to the readings of the Step knobs (or so I think).
I then tried the opposite, took the higher voice and harmonized it with a lower Voice in 3rds below. It didn't work either.
I excluded the -7 and tried the 'usual' harmonic minor scale. Nope.I then thought maybe Step 0 reflected the Root not of the Em but of the relative G (as they share 1 Key knob) and restarted from there. Nope.
EDIT: ok, I acknowledge being a stupid person. I had my guitar tuned 1 step lower. That messed my understanding. However, that is only partly my fault, because with the tuning issue fixed I still couldn't get why I had C/Am set on the Key knob but a Cm 7/+7 scale harmonization. Guess you get a 'C something' scale depending on manual settings and you just have to dismiss the 'C/Am' informationI set all the Step knobs to 0 and then tried turning one Step knob at a time to find out how they work, and that left me totally perplexed. Turning some Step knobs didn't result in any effect, while turning others resulted in harmonies that I totally didn't expect.The part below is still relevant
Also, I can't make sense of the -36...+36 range per Step at all now, because once you pick an Octave, all the range you get is only whithin this Octave anyway.
Please help!
A side question: I usually need only 1 additional harmonizing Voice at a time. So can I do the following: set Voices 1 & 2 to a given scale and given intervals, and then isolate either out with the Voice Balance knob using the Morphing fumction? I.e. Morph 0 is 'main voice and Voice 1', Morph 1 is 'main voice and Voice 2'.
