Harmonizer with a 4th on the V

Hi,
I have a QVox harmonizer from Eventide. When I set the harmonizer to 3rds, it works as expected..... however.......sometimes, I would like it to play the 4th on the V of a song. In other words: if I'm in G and I play the V (the note D), I'd the option to push it up to the G rather than the F#

Any harmonizer like that? I thought TC Electronics had something like this ..... but I need an iOS plugin that allows this. And of course it needs to track like a beagle on boar hunt.

Thanks
AJ

    The transposition amount is an AU parameter. You can change the transposition to 4ths and back. QVox doesn't have a mode to change the transposition degree based on the root note.

  • There are two other goid ones: Harmonizr and Bleass Voices.

  • @espiegel123 ’s answer is good, but want to add something.

    I think you’re confusing diatonic chord names with notes of a scale. The V is a chord, not a single note, so you wouldn’t play a D note for the V in the key of G Major, you would play a D-F#-A. If you play a G in place of the F# it’s going to give you a Dsus4 chord (making it feel like you’re holding off from a resolution).

  • @michael_m Thanks for the comment. True in the sense if you're talking about chords. Here - and in my discussion I am taking about a single harmony note. I believe if the (single) harmony note is set to 3rds, and I'm in the key of G, when I play a D, if the harmonizer plays an F#, the feel is that of a V chord. But if I can move that up a half step and get D and G; while it could be part of a Dsus chord - it could also be part of G chord as well. This is what I'm after; to be able to press a switch, and assuming I'm playing slow enough or it can track..... when I play the 5th note of the scale to be able to optionally make it like the root chord (being the 5th and 8th note of the scale). Good catch.

    As I explained, you can send AU parameter changes to switch up the generated interval at will.

    If you want it to switch to 4ths any time you play a G and switch back to 3rds automatically when any other note is played, you could use something like MIDI Guitar's generated MIDI to trigger the parameter changes...though there might be some latency you'd have to work around.
