HoRNet HarmoniQ Demo: Enhance Your Drum Sound - Kick, Snare, and Full Drumkit

Welcome to our demo of the HoRNet HarmoniQ plugin! In this video, we'll dive into the internal workings of HarmoniQ and show you how it can dramatically improve your drum sounds.
First, we'll apply HarmoniQ to the kick drum, then to the snare drum, and finally to the entire drumkit. You'll hear the difference as we activate and deactivate the plugin, showcasing how it effectively removes inharmonic frequencies and enhances the clarity and quality of your tracks.

He gave me this plugin for free as a gift and at first i was not into it but after using it for a while it ends up on all of my channels!

[@HoRNetWeb]

Thank you this si very appreciated :)

[@josephrogers2843]

Hornet plugins are great! Excellent job once again!

[@HoRNetWeb]

Thank yo uvera much :) I'm happy you enjoy our stuff!

[@Fear2Stop]

Definitely will be getting this next paycheck (or if I get a few bandcamp Friday sales). This would be VERY useful

[@HoRNetWeb]

Thank you it's 88% off right now, for one day!

@@HoRNetWeb ahh still shows $11.99 on the App Store . Will check again later today 😎

@@HoRNetWeb is it just for the desktop version? I tried the code in the App Store and it said invalid

[@exitthelemming145]

Nice video. The results are subtle but in the context of a full mix with many instruments competing for bandwidth, invaluable for helping each sound have it's own discernible window. What would be nice would be if the requisite EQ 'dips' could be exported and used in an EQ plug in.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Hi thank you, yes the effect builds up pretty fast. We are planning an update that can show you the filters created, it'll be hard to export them though as there is no standard for passing data between plugins.

[@mesarecto6903]

This will be my next purchase. Very helpful.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Great! thank you :)

[@williamk6605]

You make great plugins! I look forward to seeing what you produce next.

[@HoRNetWeb]

:) thank you

[@bestok]

Amazing approach. I would suggest a "bump" button next to delta "on" mode to get a bump in volume of the delta signal to have an illustrative enhanced listening of what is been removed. Congrats for your work

[@HoRNetWeb]

Than you very much I'll add your request to our feature request list!

[@EmanuelSantiago]

Definitivamente lo compraré. Sin embargo, me gustaría que la detección de la fundamental sea dinámica y a tiempo real. En las voces, la fundamental de cada nota cambia según el tono cantado, incluso si se canta en la misma tonalidad. Además, los filtros de reducción deben ser dinámicos para acompañar la dinámica frecuencial y los cambios inarmónicos resultantes del análisis de la fundamental de cada tono. Esto podría convertirse en una especie de "Vocal HarmoniQ," ya que prácticamente estoy describiendo otro plugin, y dudo que el actual plugin lo pueda hacer.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Yes you are right but this may cause phasing issues while moving filters and we found that even if the root changes it's almost always harmonic with the root found so it never ends up in a filter

[@EmanuelSantiago]

@@HoRNetWeb Entiendo, gracias. 👍

[@FC-xc3zy]

Brilliant. Hornet has the best plugins.

[@HoRNetWeb]

thank you very much!

[@dj_instruments937]

We should be able to equally increase the fundamental frequencies (harmonics) of the sound source. This is almost perfect. Hope to see an update that allows us to boost the fundamental frequencies simultaneously! Perhaps make the Fundamental peaks a sherbert orange shade to contrast against the in harmonics.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Ok so let me understand you would like the ability to boos fundamental and harmonics?

[@EmanuelSantiago]

Plugin Proposal: Parallel Mixing with Automatic Volume Control I've been searching for years for a plugin that allows me to control the parallel mixing of an entire chain of plugins with a single mix knob, adjusting the proportion of the summed effect without affecting the audio level achieved after processing. Although plugins have their own mix knob, I desire a solution that encompasses the entire chain. The idea is simple: when moving the mix knob, the proportion of the summed effect of the entire chain is adjusted with automatic volume compensation, maintaining a constant audio level after all processing. Currently, no plugin offers this functionality effectively, and limited tools only exist natively in some DAWs. A possible solution would be to create an instance of the plugin at the beginning of the chain that creates a copy of the dry audio and sends it to a second instance at the end of the chain, mixing the processed audio with the dry audio using constant gain compensation so that the only noticeable modification when moving the knob is the proportion of the effect, not the volume, as happens when trying to do traditional parallel mixing using effect buses. I believe this plugin would be very useful, saving time and simplifying the workflow. Would it be possible for you to develop it? I appreciate your consideration. By the way, I already acquired the H76 plugin and it's an excellent compressor.

[@Oliviers30190]

🔥🔥🔥👍👍... I really like the idea behind this plugin... the fact that it is based on the fundamental and that it only calms inharmonic sounds is really clever... I watched the entire video hoping to see a button appear that would allow the plugin to track changes of the fundamental on more complex sounds like vocals..... but anyway... It's already 👍🔥🔥... I can't wait to test this plugin...

[@HoRNetWeb]

well it does not track pitch because moving filters create phasing. But this is. not needed you will see in a future video that it works wonders on harmonic sounds too! (because 99% of song have harmonies that never falls in "inharmonic" regions)

[@timboslyce1290]

I know The Harmonic plugin I got from u guys is the best and Cheapest PLUGIN to use On 808s! I can make the Dullest 808 sound funky! I used it on every 808 track I do! I’m ahh tag u guys on the Gram when I do a video using it!

[@nilsgutenberg313]

Much better then sleek. Master tool is still my favourite.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Thank you very much :) the are two different plugins with different purpose anyway.

[@neoecclesia]

Ottimo, lo acquisterò sicuramente! Ma qual è la differenza tra questo e lo sleek? Cosa mi sfugge?🤔

[@HoRNetWeb]

Sono due cose completamente diverse: Sleek analizza l'audio confrontando una versione dello spettro "smoothed" con la versione originale e identifica le risonanze (ovvero picchi stremi presenti nello spettro. a questo punto le attacca con dei filtri e le riduce in tempo reale. HamroniQ invece trova la fondamentale dell'audio analizzandolo prima. A questo punto calcola gli armonici e cerca picchi tra un armonico e un altro (gli inarmonici) riducendoli con dei notch

[@neoecclesia]

@@HoRNetWeb Grazie ! potresti fare un video su come usarli entrambe in modo da avere poi un file audio miglio possibile per poi andare in fase di mix ? in ogni caso grazie della risposta e grazie per tutto il vostro lavoro !!!!

[@HoRNetWeb]

@@neoecclesia certo perche' no posso provare!!

[@neoecclesia]

@@HoRNetWeb sei un grande !!!

[@vcodev108]

What is the difference between this plugin and sleek? please guide me.

[@HoRNetWeb]

Hi, they are two different plugins altogether. Sleek analyses audio in realtime and comparing the raw spectrum with a smoother version identifies the resonances, then using a given amount of dynamic filters attack them as they appear. HarmoniQ first analyses your audio and seek the fundamental and up to 60 harmonics. then if any peak between two harmonics is found we have an inharmonic frequency which needs to be tamed with a filter. so HarmoniQ applies one there, statically.

[@vcodev108]

@@HoRNetWeb ok so HarmoniQ has the ability to identify the fundamental frequency of all the instruments? what do you think?

[@HoRNetWeb]

@@vcodev108 yep this is dressy easy, you do the FFT of thew signal and search for the Lowes peak this is the fundamental.

[@esahm373]

Sounds good with multiple instances. But it looks like it's causing lagging. Is the CPU tax high?

[@HoRNetWeb]

well not that much, condor it can place up to 50 different filters. usually it takes from 1% to 4% cpu on my i7 laptop (much less on my M1 Mac mini)

[@eegoal]

Is it better to use it before or after highpass?

[@HoRNetWeb]

I would use it as first plugin in the chain (this is what I do) because it aims to clean up the signal from start.

[@danpejril8337]

I would like to see how it works with guitar (acoustic and electric), bass, keys and vocals.

[@HoRNetWeb]

sure We are preparinng more videos!

Wow this is great, trying to buy it but looks like your website is overloaded

Hello, any estimated date for the next update? :)

[@HoRNetWeb]

we have some bug fix to top very likely in September

[@citrinetowerbeats]

@@HoRNetWeb Great, because in Cubase it doesn't work for me, the DAW freezes and in FL Studio the plugin crashes. It only works without problems for me in ableton lite 12, I hope they fix it soon :)

[@HoRNetWeb]

@@citrinetowerbeats yep it's due to a VST3 problem with window resizing that happens in Cubase and FL

[@elgamer6832]

Can this help me with the aliasing generated by other plugins?

[@HoRNetWeb]

definite if the arising is high enough in level. I mena for HarmoniQ to put. filter on a give frequency the inharmonic level must be higher than the level of the previous or following harmonic level

Come on Saverio, at least 1080P in 2024 if not 4K. Just an opinion but I find 720P and lower videos hard to watch these days.

Thank you for the suggestion. we honestly never really cared about this stuff as long as it's enough. we will consider using higher resolution in the next one.

[@freesongsmusic]

Hello, Sir. I would hire a professional to make a demo video of your product because it is a pity to spend time and money to develop great plugins and not be able to show properly their effectiveness as should.

[@HoRNetWeb]

what do you think we should improve? we are displaying real user cases with in depth explanation of how the plugin works instead of flashing 3D animations that are only eye pleasing...
