Plug-In To 4-Part Harmonies

Antares tell us that that Harmony Engine is a real-time harmony generating plug-in that puts professional-quality vocal harmony arrangements within reach of any songwriter, producer, musician or engineer. They say that, with four independent harmony voices, a variety of powerful harmony generating modes, humanization features for natural sounding performances, and a flexible real-time preset system for harmony and vocal type, Harmony Engine provides incredibly easy-to-use tools to quickly and easily produce virtually any vocal arrangement you can imagine.

Key Harmony Engine Features Include:

• Four high-quality, formant-corrected harmony voices with independent vocal character, vibrato, and pan settings

• Antares Throat Modeling technology that lets you process each harmony voice through a physical model of the human vocal tract

• A variety of innovative Harmony Control modes, from fully automatic to individual control of every note:

  • Fixed or Scale Intervals: Simply set the key and harmony voice intervals and let Harmony Engine do the rest

  • Chord Degrees or Chord Name: Define your harmony chord-by-chord, complete with inversions and variable vocal ranges

  • Chord by MIDI: Define your harmony in real time via a MIDI controller or pre-recorded MIDI track

  • MIDI Omni: Directly "play" the four harmony voices as if they were voices of a synth or sampler

  • MIDI Channel: Use four separate MIDI channels for absolute control over each note of your vocal arrangement

• Spread and Register controls that allow you to quickly and intuitively set the pitch range and harmony style of your vocal arrangement

• Humanize functions that provide selectable amounts of variation to each harmony voice for realistic, natural sounding results

• A Freeze function that allows a unique variety of backup vocal effects by letting you instantly freeze pitch and/or formant articulation

• A Harmony Preset matrix that lets you create up to 15 complete harmony settings and instantaneously recall them in real time or via automation
