Cherry Audio Harmonia Part 1: Harmonic Interpolated Scanning Oscillator

[@Andronicus2007]

I'm definitely getting vintage 70s RMI Synthesizer vibes here.

[@CatSynthTV]

Definitely. The additive/harmonic selection lends itself to RMI-like sounds. But it's probably also some of my bias in choosing the harmonic samples and how I play them 😺

[@macronencer]

Came back to watch this again, as I've realised I haven't done enough with this synth yet. It's a great tutorial! Like others, I would like to see fine-tuning added to the harmonics so we could experiment with alternative tuning scales etc.

[@chadatom]

Even better if the chromatic scale, and therefore the underlying keyboard, could be set to a Scala tuning - even just a simple 12-note altered scale that could have notes in tune with some of the higher harmonics

What an excellent tutorial and walkthrough of the synth’s capabilities. New subscriber on board. ✅

[@CatSynthTV]

Thank you so much for the kind words and subscribe. And glad you enjoyed the tutorial and walkthrough 😺🎹

[@joesweeney6262]

well done with this tutorial. i've been experimenting with harmonia. its a very quick path for complex sound design, as you noted. ❤ also loved your highlighting the jargon from CA. 😂

"I'm going to select the locrian mode, because i do things like that" 😅😂

[@CatSynthTV]

Thank you for the kind words, and for appreciating our dry sense of humor 😹

@@CatSynthTV Your comment inspired me. Today I went and set up my NDLR, Stepic and Launchpad 3 in Locrian D for an ACID jam session. It... did not go as bad as I had expected. Not great. However, no pets died as a result, though it did make the neighbour's baby cry.

[@joesweeney6262]

So I will count today as a success. 🙈

[@CatSynthTV]

Haha, nice! Locrian can be quite melodic when used well. I actually used it as the basis for at least one of the pieces in this live performance last year kzbin.info/www/bejne/qna7p2WqfJ2pmtU 😺🎶🎹

[@AaronDuckFish]

Thanks for another great tutorial! What an interesting synth. I wish they had made the harmonics (partials) detunable… I was hoping that’s what the detune knob did!

[@CatSynthTV]

Ah, that would have been very cool, as I am interested in inharmonic tunings and timbres! I'm guessing that would have added complexity to the interface that wanted to avoid - perhaps in a future update we'll see that option.

[@BenedictRoffMarsh]

Does that lovely-looking keyboard have a Fatar keybed with poly Aftertouch? LOL Sorry, I meddle with you whilst watching. Tried to d'load before but their site was flagged. I am happy to see Cherry making something new. I have Reason's Parsec which I like and use a bit, but new takes on Additive are worth a looksee. This seems pretty robust for an initially simple interface. Nice design. :-)

Can't listen to the robot voice.

[@CatSynthTV]

Not sure what you are referring to?

[@gtamediaproductions1]

What robot voice?@@CatSynthTV

[@Andronicus2007]

Dude thinks you're a robot! 😅
