no, but how is this (LFO on volume) "kinda slow", are you pulling my leg?

Purchased while at work! I'm dying to go home and play around with some resynthesis ideas.

Can anyone tell me if it is necessary to resynthesize multiple notes/octaves to get the most out of a resynthesis attempt or will I be able to get fairly strong results from a lone middle C? I have in mind to layer a Rhodes sound with both a dull bell and marimba as a single 'note' and go from there. Wondering if I'll need to set up the source notes across a range, etc?

For some effects it'd be cool to be able to make it faster.

Played a bit with Harmor and tried also to program some patches. I think it's a good and very versatile synth!
A short demo I made with 11 instances of Harmor. Ducking, arps, such stuff is also created inside the synth with the very flexible envelopes. Only the drums are not from Harmor...

Wow. Music is not purposeless. Read a history book. Music's link to social change is incredibly well documented. And why do you think advertisements, movies, plays, operas, politicans and almost all religions use music?
So music is has a purpose, but drawing/painting is purposeless? Mmmh, that's interesting.
The world wouldn't change if you stopped doing music, just like it wouldn't change if Harmor had a blank, Ikea-style GUI. I do it because it's fun, most likely you make music for the same reason.

Yeah, I see how I used a bad word choice there when I described your icons as purposeless. I should have used more clear and open language.

As I said before the icons aren't an issue. I appreciate their whimsy and the personality they add, now. I was only "thinking out loud". There is a lot of information on the Harmor screen and as I was learning it I was examining everything about it closely to learn how it worked. I wish I had kept the more obviously positive observations in that post too.

On the advanced tab there is what I assume is a battery. No matter how much "power" you use it never moves.
Yes that's a battery, iconizing "performance". Did you really try to click on a monochrome, flat icon next to a label to make it move?

No, but I was attempting to communicate that it would be useful if it reflected how much "power" you are using. A high voltage icon would have been an interesting option and would fit in with the caution lines in the filter section.

I did click the volume display! (probably too many adventure video games growing up) And note that if you click "vol", which is also done in the same style it jumps right to the slider (nice touch BTW)

or clicking on portamento or legato or the chain-link icon turns them on.

I think the half full nature of the battery icon and volume threw me. I guess I'm just an optimist and want to make them full.

tony tony chopper wrote:
BTW I would probably iconize volume as a speaker maybe with some waves coming out of it.
except that a speaker would iconize pretty much anything in a synth. I only use a pair of speakers to iconize panning.

Good point, and an ear has the same issue, although the same could be said about the lines used to represent EQ and phaser now. Those are pretty tough to iconize!

Funny, in the past (it's not the first time we use mascots) we were told that we were inserting cartoons for kids.

Well, I personally don't think this image is mature either, but since I fixed it I don't care anymore. The synth sounds good and works well, so that's all that matters.

It's the pose. http://womenfighters.tumblr.com/ Picturing a real cat in that pose is cracking me up, thanks.

Would you really like it if someone said that about a woman in your life?
Seriously, you can't tell reality from fiction?

I recognize that it's a fantasy. We just have different ways of looking that things and that's fine. I think art is an even greater propaganda tool than music, but that's something for another forum.

I have a much younger sister (that uses synths!) and I don't feel like passive sexual poses like that are good role models and she personally doesn't like this one. Anyway, it took me 10 seconds to edit (deleting breaks things) the AboutChan.png file. Not sure why you couldn't have told me that.

Will editing this file break Harmor when I buy it? Activate some kind of copy protection? If not, I'm 99% sure I'll buy it. I find the actual layout of the synth super easy and fun.

Man! If the piccy is a problem (but who would actually love girls wearing virginal belts and other suggestive paraphernalia ...), I have a solution for you.

First, .. if you need/want, the obligatory 10% discount code:

Second, a couple of fun, and full of positive vibes, PICS, that you could copy/paste into the splash screen:

Hope your little sister likes it!

Otherwise, just google for Kermit piccies!
