Electro-Harmonix Intelligent Harmony Machine Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the Intelligent Harmony
Machine (IHM): a compact, harmony generating, polyphonic
pitch-shifting powerhouse! The IHM creates authentic sound-
ing diatonic harmonies—harmonies within a given key, tracked
from single notes—and performs polyphonic pitch-shifting—
fixed pitch shifts independent of key, on both single notes
and chords—all from a standard electric guitar, bass or many
other electronic instruments. It accepts power from 9V bat-
teries and standard 9VDC center-negative power supplies. In
addition to the required input and output jacks, the IHM also
features a dry output jack for extra routing flexibility.
WARNING: This device comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-200 power sup-
ply. It requires 26mA at 9VDC with a center negative plug. Use of the wrong adapter or
a plug with the wrong polarity may damage the device and void the warranty. Do not
exceed 10.5VDC on the power plug. Power supplies rated for less than 30mA will cause
the device to act unreliably.
