Editing “Special” Modules

A select few modules require a non-standard editing environment. To enter this “special” environment,
click on the special module and then select the second to last command under the

Edit

menu. The exact

phrasing of this command will change depending on what module you have selected. Here are some
examples:

“Curve” modules, the

multitap

module,

and the waveform module have a graphical
editor that is considerably easier to use than
the Harmonizer’s front panel.

The

textblock

module has its own

editor.

Updating the Parameters from the Harmonizer

As you create more extensive programs, you’ll find yourself frequently

Send

ing incomplete version of a program to the Harmonizer as you work.

When you do, you will often change parameter values on the Harmonizer. It
would be quite irritating if you lost those parameter changes when you
returned to work in Vsigfile.

Fortunately, you don’t have to. Once you’re done tweaking things in the
Harmonizer and are ready to return to Vsigfile, select the

Update params

command under the

Midi

menu. Vsigfile will update all of the parameter

values in your patch from the Harmonizer.

Note: if you change the types, order or connections in Vsigfile after you’ve
sent a program to the Harmonizer, you will not be able to

Update

it. You’ll get

the message shown to the right.
