Love, peace and Harmonia
The latest addition to Cherry Audio’s ever-swelling arsenal, Harmonia cribs from wavetable synths of yesteryear…
Cherry Audio has unveiled an all-new wavetable synth plugin – Harmonia has been inspired by the classic vector and wave sequencing synths of the ’80s and ’90s, building on these foundational techniques via a modern architecture that incorporates additive synthesis. The resulting sound, as the company describe it, is “lush, evolving and polyphonic”.
Harmonia is equipped with two sample-based oscillators, each of which can generate up to eight pitches using waveforms in the plugin’s library. These pitches, or harmonics, can then be tuned individually to create harmonically complex timbres. The volume of each of these harmonics can also be tweaked individually, adjusted collectively through a handy slider, or even modulated to produce evolving and organic textures, with a process Cherry Audio has named ‘interpolated harmonic scanning’.
