Harmonics
Harmonics effects add new frequency content to the original signal, whether that’s
by creating resonant frequencies at specific bands, or by exciting harmonics. There
are 2 insert effects in this category:
• Chord Resonator
• Exciter
Chord Resonator
This effect produces independently controllable resonant frequencies created by feeding
delay lines back into themselves until the being to self-oscillate. Running in parallel,
they can create harmonically rich sounds, with a metallic flavor.
CONTROLS
Root (I)
Turn on and off the root pitch, and define the Octave (0-5), and Root Note (C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#,
G, G#, A, A#, B), and Gain (negative infinity - 0 db).
Tune
Adjust the fine tuning of the Root between -100 cents and 100 cents.
Harmony (II-V)
Turn each of the 4 additional resonators on and off, define their pitch interval relative to the root
(between -24 and +24), set individual de-tune values (between -50 cents and +50 cents), and adjust
their gain (between negative infinity - 0 db).
Decay
Adjust the length of decay between 0% (shorter) and 100% (longer).
Color
Change the tone color by adjusting the resonator feedback between 0% (min) and 100% (max).
Mix
Controls the loudness of the affected signal relative to the original (dry) signal.
Output Gain
Boost (+24 db) or attenuate (-60 db) the audio output gain.
Booster
This effect is both a loudness maximizer and a saturator, producing rich upper harmonics
that add presence, and warmth.
CONTROLS
Input Gain
Boost (+24 db) or attenuate (-60 db) the audio input gain.
Boost
Increase (100%) or decrease (0%) the upper harmonics.
Output Gain
Boost (+24 db) or attenuate (-60 db) the audio output gain.
