TC-Helicon Harmony4 for Pro Tools|HD Now Shipping
TC-Helicon announces that its Harmony4 plug-in for Pro Tools|HD ($995 MSRP) is now shipping. With this software, producers, engineers and songwriters can save time and are free to explore creative possibilities. Harmony4 can be used to generate exciting new 1-to 4-part harmonies, fatten existing harmony tracks and create memorable vocal special effects even after the singer has left the studio. The Pro Tools|HD version of Harmony4 supports universal binary, Windows XP and runs seamlessly on Venue.
The TC-Helicon harmony algorithms in Harmony4 are also available in VoicePro, VoiceLive, and VoiceWorks. Up to four virtual singers with individual gender, vibrato, levels and various humanization controls can be created from a single vocal track. Harmony4 offers extensive humanization features with robust pitch detection and Hybrid ShiftingTM algorithms. The interface of the Harmony4 plug-in offers several schemes to simplify the choice of harmony -- from automatic scale-based harmony that intelligently follows melismatic singing, to MIDI note control allowing any possible melody to compliment the lead vocal.
“With a choice of MIDI controlled and automatic control methods, anyone can take advantage of Harmony4 regardless of instrument skills,” explains Kevin Alexander, CEO of TC-Helicon. “TC-Helicon’s vocal processing is a step above other available tools because of the sonic difference, which is a result of TC-Helicon’s research and implementation of humanization features, the accuracy and speed of the patent-pending pitch detection and other great algorithms you’ll discover when you use Harmony4 on your next song.”
