MESA Synth AUv3 vs Harmonaut

MESA is a wavetable synthesizer unlike any other — it turns visuals into sound. Drop in a shader or a .vkograph and MESA renders it offscreen, reads the light across the image, and turns that into a wavetable you play. The picture literally becomes the oscillator — and the same visual keeps living behind your keys, reacting to every note. No other synth works like this. Behind the magic is a complete, serious instrument: THE ENGINE • 64-frame wavetables, FFT mip-banked for clean, alias-free playback everywhere • Unison oscillator stack with detune, spread, and a sub-oscillator • Zero-delay-feedback filter — cutoff, resonance, drive, self-oscillating • Full ADSR envelope, portamento glide, and a dedicated pitch envelope SHAPE THE SOUND WITH LIGHT • Vision panel: choose the scanline, weight color channels, bend the brightness curve, sweep time — one shader, a thousand timbres • 33 color palettes that reshape the tone, not just the look • VFX chain: 26 stackable visual modifiers, each one also an audio effect A FULL STUDIO • 3-slot modulation matrix with 2 LFOs, velocity, and mod wheel • 8-stage stereo FX rack: tape, wow & flutter, chorus, delay, reverb, lo-fi, tape-stop • Sampler mode — load any audio, auto pitch-tracked across the keys • Arpeggiator, Ableton Link, and MIDI Learn on nearly every control BUILT FOR YOUR WORKFLOW • AUv3 plug-in AND standalone app — one purchase, iOS + macOS • iCloud sync — build a patch on your Mac, it's ready on your iPhone • Categorized preset browser with import/export and full patch recall

Harmonaut™ is a chord instrument you play by feel. Press a key and hear a rich chord, voice-led smoothly from the last one, no theory needed. Build a progression, shape its mood, and export it as MIDI for your track. Two faders let you shape the mood as you play: more tension or less, brighter or darker, even major to minor. Chase a moody electronic progression, a warm lo-fi loop, a jazzy turn, a cinematic swell, or a simple pop hook. It all comes from your intent, not from naming chords. HOW IT PLAYS • Tension that actually resolves: chords that lean, pull home, and land, so your progression goes somewhere instead of just floating • Every one of the twelve keys is in play: reach past the obvious chords for richer, more surprising color, and it still sounds right • Build a whole progression, not just four chords: every chord you play lands in your trail, ready to reorder or duplicate to try new versions in seconds • Pick up right where you left off: your ideas are saved for you TAKE IT TO YOUR TRACK • Export any progression as a MIDI file and drop it into BandLab, GarageBand, or any DAW that opens MIDI, then play it through any instrument you like • Export to iReal Pro format to keep a chord chart or practice over the changes • Harmonaut Pro unlocks MIDI export, iReal Pro export, and unlimited saved progressions IT SOUNDS GOOD FOR A REASON Every chord is voice-led from the one before it, live, as you play: the notes move the shortest way, so a progression flows instead of jumping around. That's the finished feeling you hear in the songs you love. Push Intensity and the voicings open up: lush 9ths, bright 13ths, and altered dominants like G7#9b13, the colors session keyboard players reach for. And Harmonaut names every chord the way musicians actually write it, like Ebmaj7, so you can hand your progression to a session player, a bandmate, or a producer and they'll play it back exactly, first time. No box to buy, nothing to charge, no menus to dig through. It's already in your pocket. Whether it's your first progression or a sound you can hear but can't name, Harmonaut meets you where you are.
