Harmony EFX from Antares is a plug-in that allows the user to create up to 4-part harmonies, and is a streamlined version of the company's Harmony Engine Evo Vocal Modeling Harmony Generator. The plug-in is based on the same Evo Voice Processing Technology as its big brother, and puts professional quality vocal harmony arrangements within the reach of any musician or engineer.
Suitable for the seasoned vocal arranger, the songwriter looking for that perfect backup vocal, or the composer experimenting with unique vocal effects, Harmony EFX provides entirely new ways to create the harmony parts you hear in your head. The plug-in supports Audio Units, RTAS or VST formats.
Some of the product features include:
- Evo Voice Processing Technology for faster, more accurate pitch detection, smoother, artifact-free pitch shifting and seamless, natural-sounding (if required) throat modeling
- 4 high-quality, formant-corrected harmony voices with independent 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 EFX 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 4 harmony voices as if they were voices of a synth or sampler
- MIDI Channel - use 4 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
