Image-Line Harmor released

[Image-Line]

New video. Basic resynthesis of an mp3.

[olepro]

How is the resynthesis quality? Would be of interest to hear an original sound and then the resynthesized version.

The resynthesis is exceptional

[tony tony chopper]

The demo songs are quite amazing in my opinion.
Especially the first song.
My question is if all of these were done exclusively with Harmor (except maybe the drums) or were other effects/instruments used.

All Harmor, but drums may be samples resynthesized in Harmor.

Sound quality: Outstanding
CPU:
Price:
Features: Wow! (Resynthesis Quality=WOW!)
Patches: OK
Interface: A mess

Where is the manual?? (Edit: Found it. Now some reading.)

Interesting, Harmor doesn't generate frequencies beyond 18K

That's really cool

I tried the demo in Sonar 8.5 Producer and it's working great.

Sounds very nice

it's capped at 17k, not to spend CPU on inaudible partials

(you seem to have aliasing in that Massive bit btw)

OK, makes sense, thanks for your reply. I certainly don't hear the difference, I wonder if anyone does?

[paterpeter]

I wouldn't care much if it worked in bridged mode, but this way it's only a "maybe" for me

Scrap the maybe, I bought this thingy after playing with it for a while. Nice one!

Wait, but can't humans hear beyond 17k?

Anybody managed to get proper detune of +5 semi and +7 semi between Part A and B?

the detuning selector shows a ratio, so it's actually easier to achieve those, and precisely, not approximations like with semitones. Try 2/3 or 4/3 for example. And then you can still add some more decimals for the slight detuning you'd get with semitones.
In other words: when you layer a +7semitones osc, you're actually doing an approximation of "3/2". In Harmor select 3/2, it will sound perfect, and add some decimals if you wanna get some fluctuations.

But try the harmonizer, it allows similar effects using the same part.

thank you. Yes, different approach here, but needs to get it.(couldnt make the same with harmonizer though)

Most people over 20 hardly hear anyting above 17kHz.

[wakax]

any chance of the manual as pdf ?
thanks.

There really isn't much real world and useful 'musical' information or sound even above 17 kHz.

Here is a sample...the audio is the same except the frequencies are

Full 20Hz to 22kHz --> 20Hz to 17kHz --> 17kHz to 22kHz.



What can you hear?

I have a question regarding the image-synthesis:

Is there any way to have it not filtered to the overtones?
What I mean is, that if I'd load a white picture for example, I'd get white noise instead of a sawtooth.

That would be cool ... although I'm not sure, if this would even be possible in realtime.

mmh but I don't see how a white picture would result in noise. A noise image would result in noise.

If you mean you wanna get a "white sawtooth", thus bypass the default brownian EQ, you can try loading the "Timbre - white" envelope in "timbre 1 harmonic level". Now a white image = a white sawtooth, all harmonics at the same level. Not very useful musically but handy for plucked strings.
