Harmonizer vs Skadis Click

Harmonizer - AUv3 is a real-time vocal harmonizer for iPhone and iPad. Sing into a microphone, select piano keys or chord pads, and hear live harmonies with low latency. Use it as a standalone instrument or load it as an AUv3 effect in compatible hosts such as GarageBand and Logic Pro for iPad. Key Features: - Live Vocal Harmonies: Process your voice in real time with harmonies based on held notes, piano keys, chord pads, or connected MIDI input. - Standalone and AUv3: Use Harmonizer as a standalone app or as an AUv3 audio effect in compatible music apps. Record the harmonized result directly in your host project. - Chord Pads: Play and hold chords with touch pads. Move between pads naturally, prepare the next chord while another is held, and use multiple octave ranges within each pad. - Audio Controls: Adjust dry vocal level, harmony level, output gain, and, in the standalone app, reverb amount and space preset. - Custom Chord Sets: Create, rename, duplicate, edit, and delete chord sets for different songs or performances. Choose the number of pads, chord roots, qualities, octaves, and pad layouts. - Piano Keyboard: Play with a multitouch piano keyboard designed for live performance. Choose Glide mode for sliding notes or Scroll mode to move across the keyboard while continuing to play. - iPad Dual Keyboard: On iPad, use two independent keyboard rows with separate positions for wider playing ranges. - MIDI Input: Use connected MIDI keyboards and controllers to play harmonies. MIDI works with chord pads and keys, including AUv3 host MIDI where supported. - MIDI Mapping: Map MIDI notes to chord pad positions and map MIDI knobs to key mixing controls such as Dry, Harmony, Reverb, and Output level. - Hand Control: Optionally control chord pads using the front camera. Hover over a pad with your hand and pinch to hold its chord. Includes a short tutorial plus low-light, no-hand, and multiple-hand guidance. - Local Processing: Microphone audio, camera input, chord sets, and performance settings stay on your device. Harmonizer does not upload or sell your audio or camera data. - Apple Intelligence Chord Progressions - Describe a mood, style, key, or progression idea to generate a named playable chord set with a short description; preview each chord, edit it, then save and use it live in Harmonizer. Requires a compatible device with Apple Intelligence enabled and availability may vary by language and region. Enjoy!

Skadis Click is a metronome for people whose music does not sit in plain 4/4. Beats are counted in samples inside the audio render callback rather than by a timer, so the pulse cannot drift under load - and a tempo change lands instantly, without a phase glitch. In our own timing test the worst deviation across every meter, subdivision and swing setting is a single sample: 0.02 ms at 48 kHz. METER AND ACCENTS - Any meter from 1/2 to 32/16 - 17 ready-made plus a custom one - Four levels per beat: accent, normal, quiet, rest - set by tapping the beat strip - Grouping for odd meters: 7/8 as 3+2+2 or 2+2+3, with accents placed for you - The tempo unit is set apart from the meter, so 6/8 counts BPM by the dotted quarter RHYTHM - Subdivisions from eighths to septuplets, a different one per beat if you want - Swing from 0 to 100% - 66% is the classic triplet shuffle - A second layer: polyrhythm (3 against 4) or polymeter (an independent cycle that drifts against the bar), with its own timbre, level and pan SOUND - 16 timbres synthesised procedurally - no samples in the bundle, no bloat - Separate timbres for the accent, the beat and the subdivision - Level and pan per layer, so the main pulse and the polyrhythm can sit in opposite channels - Plays over your music without ducking it, and keeps running with the screen off PRACTICE TOOLS - Tempo ramp: +N BPM every M bars up to a target, with a there-and-back mode and a graph - Silence drill: the click drops out for N bars, or randomly mutes individual beats - Count-in before the start READING IT AT A GLANCE The dial shows the bar as concentric cycles: the outer ring is the beats, with dot size carrying the accent; the ticks between them are the subdivision; a separate ring is the second layer. Two progress arcs run on their own periods - in a polyrhythm they close together, in a polymeter the inner one visibly runs ahead. The beat strip along the bottom is for editing accents by touch; the rings are for reading from a music stand. ALSO - Tap tempo with a rolling average that discards obvious misses - Presets and a song mode: a chain of sections with their own tempo and meter, switching exactly on the barline - Haptics scaled by accent level, a screen flash, and a silent mode No account, no network, no ads, no tracking. Your presets and songs are stored on your device and stay there.
