Harmonic Reverb

Turn any sound into lush chords that stay perfectly in key with your song

This is a simple but very effective trick: use the (new in Live 12.2) “scale aware” feature of the Resonators audio effect and combine that with a reverb, to make reverbs become chords. Just turn on the purple “scale aware” button of the Resonators (and also the at the top of your screen) and the reverb chords will match the key of your song:

Scale Awareness on Resonators requires Live 12.2 or above
 
We went deep on this resulted, and ended up making a pack “Harmonic Reverb” which you can DOWNLOAD HERE  free for a limited time (until our next pack)
 
The pack includes 3 racks, with loads of presets and can be used on drums, vocals, synths, pianos, and pretty much anything.
 
Here’s some examples:
  • The “Standard” rack has 16 sound-shaping chord controls

  • The “Lean” version has 8 sound-shaping chord controls

  • The “Weighty” version has 34 controls in four sections. The Pre-texture section introduces various textures that makes the harmonic reverb respond in new ways, and the Wobblers section adds multiple types of pitch-wonk to the reverb chords.

The pack contains 5 live sets, including this one which shows that you can change the key of the chords per clip. Watch when the blue clip comes in and changes the key:
