Since there is no support forum for Harmor at image-line.com yet, I have a few FRs:

1. Is it possible to allow the zoom to be independent in each envelope? I know there are a lot of envelopes, but it's annoying that they seem to share a zoom level per window/tab, not per envelope. e.g. In Timbre 1 Harmonic Level envelope I am zoomed fully out to see the entire envelope without having to scroll in any direction. However, if I switch to a different envelope, upon returning to the Timbre 1 Harmonic Level envelope, the zoom is reset to a zoomed in one not how I left it.

2. Are there any plans to allow export of waveform from the plugin itself? I'd also like to use the waveforms I make with the envelopes inside of Harmor outside of Harmor itself. Possible?

3. Can we somehow select a different image editor besides paint? If it's possible already via a file association, which file type is it?

That's all the FRs, now I have a question. There are tutorial presets but aside from dissection after loading them is there a supplement to each? They obviously are specific to certain new things that are not available elsewhere and so some context would help. Perhaps this is part of the premature release and we can expect some supplemental material for these tutorial patches at some point in the future?

Oh and one last question, sometimes I analyze a waveform dropping it onto Timbre1 box, but this sometimes shifts Timbre2 box (assuming those are the names there aren't any labels). For example, I drop a sine.wav onto the left box, it shows appropriately, but sometimes modifies the right box. Just wondering if this is a bug? Doesn't seem like an expected outcome.

Really loving the synth. Thanks.

Despite the morphing problems in Kore it was still worth creating a template - really helped me get to grips with the GUI by breaking it down into functional units - each of these is replicated in its own user page - 23 of those in total as this is a deep synth with lots of params and many mirrored as A and B layers.

Anyone wants to contribute a donation towards my plugin addiction there's a link on my site

(it may also enable me to make more templates of course)

it's a wonderful plug; makes additve synth. very compelling. Since I have morphine though, it's not worth the price to me yet. In a perfect world with both on the market at the same time, I would probably choose Harmor.

So should i be a first time customer? I have Morphine already.
I need to buy it damn, so many presets already wasted. It's really hard to make it sounds bad.

Was in the same boat, except Morphine can't touch Harmor resynthesis. This was worth it alone. It's the first resynth I've used (and I'm ex-owner of C5k and Alchemy) that actually is almost impossible to tell a resynth from a sample. Simply amazing clarity. In Morphine it wasn't even close to this quality, Alchemy was pretty good but kind of fuzzy and was that it was resynthesis. Granular part of Alchemy is something I miss, but otherwise, Harmor is the one to beat for resynthesis IMO.

that's a helpful comparison, grymm, thanks. I haven't got around to that.

I'm wondering if morphine would once be updated with harmor's resynthesis engine, as a specific additive (re)synthesizer as morphine claim to be, it doesn't seem unsensible to me...

I can get with that!

Watch the tutorial they just posted on resynthesis, it's fantastic.

http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... 46#4649646

Even without this though, the additive stuff alone is worth the intro price.

Anyway whatever you decide it's definitely cool to have multiple tools in the ol' work belt.

Just demoed it. It can be new dubstep synth due to easyness of creating all kind of digital wobble talking presets, basses, cold industrial sounds.

but of course it's suitable for tons of other stuff (ambient).

Actually it really surpised me. Good digital synth with clean, modern presets

and everything seems to be in right place - it's not as bloated as other "similar" synths. it's very easy to create some strong leads, basses suitable for modern edm music.

and CPU consumption is nice.

and another plugin added to my list of possible buyings - not overpriced

tried the demo last night - impressed - nice gui, good sound

very tempted...

Is there a PDF manual so I can print it?

Theres is the usual Flstudio manual ( http://flstudio.image-line.com/help/ ), it isnt updated yet. You need to run the vst or the newest Fl version ( 10.08 ) to access it atm.
