Harmodion
is an
organ
and a free-reed aerophone virtual instrument, which includes electronic,
clonewheel drawbar, transistor and combo organs, as well as
reed harmonium, flutina, accordion and bandoneon. It uses additive
synthesis allowing to manipulate harmonically the sine waveform components to produce pitched sounds, as well as
to individually detune those components to produce inharmonic timbres.
A set of sliding drawbars are used to mix the various
harmonic components generated by the tonewheels emulation in
order to synthesize a wide variety of sounds.
Available as an instrument plugin in VST and VST3 64 bit versions for Windows.
Features
9
Drawbars. By sliding drawbars in or out, the user can mix various pitches and create the richly distinctive sounds
of an electric organ or of a free reed aerophone instrument.
The Additive synthesis constructs complex sounds by controlling the level of individual sine-wave components.
The sound can be reshaped by alterations made to timbre. A harmonic sound could be restructured to sound inharmonic, and vice versa.
The rich harmonic content of their sound allows to generate the widest
palette of tonal variations from
tonewheel
drawbar
and electronic organs to squeezeboxes (hand-held
bellows-driven) emulations. Legendary combo organs can be modeled in
order to approach to those classics like the Farfisa Compact Organ
and Vox Continental Transistor Combo Organ, among others.
Vibrato
effect, with depth and speed
modulation control.
Adjustable
Key Click
simulation to add the percussive effect for distinctive organ sounds and
button click noise in Accordion and Bandoneon presets.
Configurable
Drive level. Accomplished by clipping the input signal, this effect adds sustain and additional harmonics and overtones to the signal, creating a richer sound
with a warm thickness regarding to the original tone.
