What would make it a even more fantastic tool is that it would work as a midi input converter, so that you can harmonize any instrument in Logic for example. another idea is adjustable delays for every note so that you get a strumming/harp like effect. if it had those 2 features i wouldn't mind paying for it at all haha! thanks for this nice plugin!

Really curious to see what it can create, any help is much appreciated... once I open Harmony Box as a VST in Ableton, how do I get sound out of it?

I'm planning to use it in a live performance (Ashland, Oregon) soon. I see that a WiiMote and Nunchuck can be used to send MIDI (using GlovePIE), that could be more interesting visually... for what i'm doing i spose i could use several easy-on-the-CPU synths, one for each note of my chord/scale/mode , each with sends for fx... actually i guess i could use 2 instances of Albino, it's got 4 oscillators each separately [micro] tunable. Maybe there's a synth with 8 oscillators... But the HarmonyBox works so great [for this] as is [and i wasn't even messing with the LFOs at all, they now have dedicated knobs on the Remote, too!]. i probly shouldn't worry about the visuals anyway, once women start undulating no one will be paying attention to me anyway [as the Wizard of Oz said, 'Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain']. Maybe i strap the WiiMote to someone so her undulations are modulating the sound, kinda like the 'ballet' John Cage and Merce Cunningham did where the lighting was provided by tortoises with flashlights... thanks again -Jim [aka Death Row Tull] Using my Novation Remote Zero (MK1) to control the HarmonyBox works great!

I put a song i made with it on soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/death-row-tull/rothko it reminds me of Steve Reich, i find it powerful and beautiful. I intend to set the plugin up for controlling with my Novation Remote Zero. Can i control it with MIDI too? then i could simultaneously modify the volumes on the partials of two instances of Harmony Box, playing live (and could use long LFOs sending MIDI to vary cyclicly too)... Also my favorite scale/mode for healing and mind-melting is the Sarasawati, AKA Lydian flat7 (major scale with sharp 4 [tritone] and flat 7 [also the notes of the Scriabin 'mystic chord']). So i have a request: could you add a "Lydian flat 7" mode? i can't pay you as i am poor and live in my Toyota, but i'll tell everyone about how cool you guys are, cuz you are... [and i'll make a video for you too if you'd like] thanks! -Jim Howdy: I love this VSTi! I put a song i made with it on soundcloud:

It's a question of how fast you can transpose in your head ;) The attack time is fixed as part of the sound ;) Touching the black keys is redundant in relative mode.

Thanks guys, and am I right assuming there's no need to touch the black keys? @Ken: Just decrease the value of 'sust.' knob on the right of the GUI. As a general rule, just about any synth (virtual or not) has some sort of ADSR envelope section (attack--sustain -- decay -- release). To make short notes the player should decrease sustain and release, and vice versa. Quite weird there's no 'attack' knob in thi baby though. Cute little box!
