Hear it

The Harmonizer sends the chords, the plugin sings them. Press Hear it and watch the four voices follow a real trumpet.

The Harmonizer

Your chords, under your fingers.

The Harmonizer is a small 12-key controller that sits on your trumpet. Each key holds a chord. Press one, and the plugin re-tunes its four voices to follow whatever you play.

  1. 1Plug the Harmonizer into your computer over USB.
  2. 2Press a key. It sends the chord to the plugin in your DAW.
  3. 3Play. Four voices harmonise with you in real time.
  4. 4Change what each key plays in MTG Manager.
