nice price on sale atm and always was peeking at it but how is it compared to alchemy and? other vsts?
your opinions?

i wouldnt get it for standard add/sub synths stuff as i got too much of those already, only would get it for the resynthstuff and experimenting, just played a bit with it and got nice droney stuff.

On sale where? I came close to buying it with Image-Line's holiday 50% off coupon which would have made it $75 USD. I put it in my cart, went back to purchase it a few hours later, and the coupon had expired in that time period. I figure if I'm still interested in it I'll pick it up next year if Image-Line has another 50% off coupon.

Possibly the best sounding digital synth there is imo.

I bought in the recent 50% sale and the resynthesis is amazing.

There are a couple issues I have with it though. For one I don't like having to right-click a parameter and select from a menu to see the modulations on that parameter. It needs to be a simple click to change the screen, like how Minimonsta/Oddity 2 or Alchemy modulations work. And there should be a simple lock button to stay on the current modulation screen.

Also, it would be much better if you could resynthsize audio into each waveform of a layer and morph between them.

Do you need FL Studio to run this?

Thanks. Just bought it at that no-brainer price. Will give it a spin when I finally need a break from Serum.

It's a great synth. Interesting workflow and quite inspiring. Best? Best is relative.

OP was hoping to stir things up. Best just to re-interpret the title as, "Convince me to buy Harmor".

It's from the best together with Razor and Loom.
It has a steep learning curve but it worth it in the end. After coming back to it several times, finally it seems clicked with me. Very powerful indeed with low cpu usage compared to the quality of the sound.
Customized filters! That's alone needs a life time to play with!
I'm glad that I have it

No, and as far as I understand there is a Mac version in beta.

Awesome unashamedly and intentionally digital beast of a synth. $60? No brainer.

No, there is a VSTi version (Windows only).

Just watched a 20 minute video on Harmor Resynthesis with Seamless (guy is really bright) and this thing is just sick.

Man, I hate buying yet another synth but this thing is so damn powerful.

I hate you guys. LOL.

Harmor = best additive resynthesizer?
