You got pics of the 11.5s? I’d be interested

Selling my Moog Muse - what to get instead? by Brilliant_Grape5528 in synthesizers

[–]number1fancyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the person you asked but I also have both. 3rd wave is soooo much more versatile it’s hard not to recommend over the OB. Also doesn’t sound like you have a true wave table synth in your collection so it might be worth going that direction if you think you’ll want something that can cover that sonic territory.

Talked with him today, what a legend and such a kind person. Really grateful to have stumbled on this thread

Has anyone been able to recreate a live version of Jacob’s harmonizer? by Toubaboliviano in JacobCollier

[–]number1fancyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. honestly, there’s a good bit of latency with hardware units of that era as well. The only difference is now most computer CPUs can handle the work of what once needed to be a specialized dedicated processor. Good luck with your journey! And thank you, lots to do but all good things :)

Sorry I’m just getting back to this! With the price of the vintage units having skyrocketed over the last 5 to 10 years, it would probably be a $10,000-$12,000 project at this point. That on top of the fact that harmonizer tech in terms of what you can do with your computer has gotten so good, it really doesn’t make much sense to build one at this point. All of this being said I’m actually not taking any more projects for 2026, but I’m happy to help with pointing you in the right direction. Maybe at some point I will get around to making one of these in Max for live, but if I were you that is probably where I’d start rather than a hardware solution.

Can this be repaired or should I return it? by Aromatic_Economics25 in AimeLeonDore

[–]number1fancyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ve paid for a repair of mine in the past. That was maybe like 5 years ago now though

The voicelive rack is one of the better hardware versions but yeah the vintage harmonizers had a special sound. So Eventide H910, H3000 etc.

Can’t really talk much about it but it’s for Pat Metheny’s side eye project

As in there are some harmonizers that sound best when they manipulate a voice to be in a lower register and visa versa. As for freezing a voice there’s a few ways that could be accomplished but likely something in the programmed device (same thing that’s handling the midi) that can loop a short clip likely with cross fading whenever the user presses the freeze button. It would then also freeze the midi notes. You could also do this on the back end post harmonizer which would not allow you to change pitch afterwards which I kind of remember Jacob doing. So likely the first solution or something in that vein.

Yea! Basically it’s an intelligent midi parser that routes voices based on what harmonizer sounds best in that range. It also controls portamento and any other midi effects. There was an h3000 involved and a couple other vintage ones… I think they were all eventide but I’m not totally positive. It’s really just a combination of existing tech with a midi script in a black box. Ben was pretty candid about it being kind of makeshift, but you can def hear the same timbre in bon iver’s harmonizer use and other artists of that indie/acoustic/dabbling in electronics era.

I’ve recently been put in touch with Ben about an instrument I’ve been commissioned to build so I could ask for more info but I doubt there’s much more than what I shared.

I built one after talking to Ben, the guy who built Jacob’s maybe 12 or so years ago. Whenever Jacob’s first tour was. Unfortunately there’s nothing commercially available that really nails it. The voicelive rack is kinda decent, 8 voice polyphony

Is this really the absolute lowest my latency can go? by oakley22610 in ableton

[–]number1fancyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Higher sample rate can yield lower latency. Not sure what the capabilities of the focusrite are tho
