Harmless is an additive synthesizer doing subtractive synthesis. Or ifyou prefer, a subtractive synthesizer powered by an additive synthesisengine. You may ask: why? For several reasons. To begin with, there aretoo many subtractive synthesizers already, often bragging about beingvirtual analog. This one is digital, and proud to be. Everything isfake, the tone generator, th filter & its resonance, the phaser,all performed on the harmonics, before partials are computed. Now, howit's synthesized shouldn't matter after all, if the result soundssubtractive. But Harmless is more than a proof of concept, it allowsfine control that wouldn't be possible through classic subtractivesynthesis. Filtering and phasing can be assigned unusual shapes &slopes, something normally only possible through offline digitalfilters. Filter slopes can even be defined in Hz instead of octaves.Finally, you get control on each partial's frequency, creating timbresdefinitely impossible using common synthesis methods.
Harmless, for less harmonics
Again, Harmless is additive doing subtractive. Harmonics are notproduced to be filtered, the timbre is filtered before being generated.This may sound like a detail, but generating sounds this way offers alot more advantages than drawbacks.
Not necessarily less efficient
Powered by a highly optimized, multithreaded additive engine, CPU usageis comparable to the one of traditional subtractive synthesizers,especially for low-passed timbres. Voices may be generating hundreds ofharmonics in parallel and still not overload the CPU.
Because less is more
Harmless was limited by design. We don't have any problem with complexsynthesizers (we made several), but they're not for everyone. Here, notabs, no hidden controls, no multipoint envelopes, all features arevisible at once, and color-grouped. Over 100 parameters, most of whichbeing automatable, are laid over a clear GUI.
Harmless, only in appearance
Simpler to program, yet packed with evil features. Under the hood, youwill find unique options, like linking the phaser's output to partialsfrequencies. The LFO section can act as a special modulation source,linking the phaser's width to the velocity, or the pitch to thefilter's envelope. Of course, Harmless also offers features typicallyunique to additive synthesis, like its automatable harmonic mask.
Harmless is also packed with effects, the usual chorus, delay &reverb, but also a multiband compressor/limiter powered by Maximusitself. It also inherited the powerful unison from Sytrus. Inconclusion, our goal was to create a subtractive synthesizer with aunique twist, that also was easy to program, and we believe itsucceeded.
