Hi everybody,I am trying to setup MG 3 and midi harmonizer, but unsuccessfully. In the first case (see picture 1) I hear harmonization, but with midi harmonizator sounds (and great delay).
In the second case I hear just MG 3 instrument sound without any harnonization.
I’m not “profi” in midi at all, so be so kind to explane me all my mistakes. How to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

Hi Konstantin!
If you are looking to get the effect from the harmonizer to affect the instrument in MG3 (Kontakt in your first picture), you should use the settings from the second picture;
MIDI IN = MIDI Guitar OUT and MIDI OUT (Harmonize) = “from Midi harmonizer V404 MB2”
In your first setup you are hearing the Harmonizer synth sound (triggered by MIDI Guitar 3,)
And for your second setup i would suggest you try putting the MIDI OUT on its own Chain. 
Dear LoFiLeif, you’ve been very helpful, God bless you.Good luck!

Just to let everyone know, Johan Looijenga’s MIDI Harmonizer is available for sale again here, https://www.johanlooijenga.com. His storefront had been down, but is back up and working again. Thanks @LoFiLeiF for letting us know about this great piece of software.

It is? I am glad to hear. This means I don’t have to feel guilty anymore, everytime someone has any questions about it!

That’s an interesting looking MIDI device by Mr. Looijenga. I imagine this would be fairly simple to emulate this kind of functionality in a DAW like Live12 using the native MIDI effects. A reasonable assumption?

Maybe? I haven’t had the time to use Ableton that much lately (and I am still on 11 
), so I don’t know what MIDI tools are avalible at this point. This is indeed a Max creation I would assume that there are some similar M4L stuff to be found if someone cares to have a go at it. It seems to be (mainly) two parts involved: a chord mapper and a handling protocol ffor chord structure, harmonization and rotation.
@LoFiLeiF Thanks for your insights. My interest is piqued 
The demo by The Art of Wind Synth guy on the MIDI Harmonizer software info page is something else!

Yeah, Łukasz Knapik
He has made all these great presets for Falcon, Reason and Serum that i still use all the time. And he also provided a great solution for breath control use in Ableton (controlling an Amp and Filter) that I referred to in my “DIY Synthaxe guide”. Here is his video on that, for anyone interested:
He has a lot of interesting stuff that works great also for us MIDI guitar players.

Just to mention, Kontakt (even the free player) has a built-in harmonizer and chord tool:
To use just the generated MIDI notes following option can be selected and routed to any other VST:
