I already have the Perform-VK, however there is no longer any support, as in the PC app for updating the firmware and/or adding and editing effects is no longer available. And the audio interface aspect is very dodgy with iOS.
So I am now looking to update.
Does anyone know of harmoniser pedals that have MIDI in?
Vocal harmonisers with MIDI?

Most of the high end ones do, certainly the TC Helicon VoiceLive 1, 2, 3 and 3 Extreme do but the mid range VL Play doesn't.

Seems the app is unavailable for any of the Helicon line! In addition, those units mentioned are all floor units. The nice thing about the Performer series is they attach to the mic stand!
All I use them for is simple "one up or down" single harmony lines. The multi voice harmonies, to me, are just naff!

Just to add, I even thought it might be the USB -Mini cable (required by the VK) but it seems there are no "high quality" nor specifically designed for audio USB A to USB mini cables.

USB is a data connection, it doesn't need a cable specifically designed for audio, USB 'audio' is just ones and zeros like pretty much all computer data. What distinguishes USB cables from each other is the amount of data they can carry without falling over and that is defined by USB 1, 1.1, 2, 3, etc. Any decent cable rated for USB2 or above can carry dozens of channels of stereo audio data.
WRT TC Voicelive, I was only really commenting on the ones I have owned and their siblings (VL 2, VL 3 and VL Play) I'm a guitarist who sings so the only ones that would be of use to me are floor pedal format devices.
