NOTE: this is the most important part of the Digitaize Setup. You can repeat it at any moment choosing the option “Calibrate” from the Instrument Setting Window.
It is strongly advised to familiarize yourself with this procedure and to perform it regularly. This is especially important if you observe some major inconsistencies in the midi translation.
Selecting the concert pitch
...
Basic: This profile utilizes an octave range for each string to accurately map the instrument. You will need to calibrate each chromatic tone, starting with the half tone above the open string and continuing until you reach the first octave, which is counted from the open string. The calibration for the remainder of the fingerboard will be managed by the onboard approximation function.
Advanced: The principle of the calibration process remains the same as in the "Basic" version; however, the calibration range is expanded to cover 2 octaves.
Calibration: Tips and Hints
Ensure that the instrument is properly tuned before starting the calibration process.
Maintain a smooth and continuous sound. Avoid abrupt changes in tone or rapid shifts between pitches.
Always adhere to the on-screen guidelines: play exclusively on the specified string and follow the displayed note pitchesfunction.

Software + Firmware Update
Software updates for platforms like iOS and Android can be easily performed through the App Store, similar to other applications. For Mac and Windows users, navigate to the User Tab → Preferences → CHECK NOW to initiate the update process.
If both software and firmware updates are available, you will be prompted to update the software first.
To enable automatic update checks, simply toggle on the "Check for updates" option.
Please be aware that firmware updates can currently only be executed on the Mac and Windows versions of the Digitize Connect App using the wireless WAM mode, which requires the Digitaize USB-Receiver.
Recovery Mode
In rare instances, the firmware update process may become corrupted, or the user may select an incorrect Digitaize Product model when prompted, resulting in the device entering a non-functional state. To recover from this situation, please follow these steps carefully:
If the Module is powered on, press and hold the button for at least 10 seconds.
Ensure that the Digitaize USB Receiver is connected to the computer.
Verify that the battery of the Digitaize wireless Module is charged (recharge it for at least 10 minutes to confirm).
Open the Digitaize Connect App.
Navigate to the User Tab and select Preferences.
Wait a few seconds.
At the bottom center of the window, a message indicating "Recovery Mode" will appear.
Click on the "Recovery Mode" text and carefully follow the on-screen instructions.
Uninstallation
Windows
Each of the Digitaize Component has it’s own discrete installer and thus more components will appear in the Add/Remove Programms section of the Windows app management. To uninstall Digitaize simply uninstall each of the component starting with “Digitaize”.
