Dynamic Distortion Modulation

Motion: Harmonic opens up new frontiers in distortion, filtering and bitcrushing, placing you at the centre of a dynamic and responsive sound-shaping experience.

What can Motion: Harmonic do?

  • Transform loops into evolving phrases.
  • Produce expressive filter sweeps for tension.
  • Distort drum hits with unique character.
  • Enhance harmonics of 808's, kicks, and basses.
  • Create morphing textures and atmospheres.
  • Energize guitar and synth melodies.
  • Add movement and rhythm to pads.
  • Experiment with sound design using your mouse.
  • Visualize audio with the 3D reactive object.

Transforming your audio signal is now an animated, visually-led and creative experience with the innovative and reactive Hexagon controller.

From subtle warming and shaping to intense modulated signal destruction, Motion: Harmonic puts everything you need at your fingertips. A comprehensive selection of presets for distortion, bitcrushing and filtering take these effects into new creative territory, with tools like the multipeak filter and dynamic distortion giving you new ways to play with sound. 

The Hexagon, alongside a pulsating and reactive 3D object in the main view, offers six macro sliders that control the distortion, bitcrushing and filter parameters under the hood. These sliders then react to a ‘magnetic’ cursor whose path can be determined by any of the presets.

The Hexagon: Reactive Animation

Improving upon the concept of the traditional XY pad, the hexagon provides new automation possibilities, allowing six macro sliders to be pushed and pulled together by a magnetic field surrounding your mouse cursor.

The six sliders act as macro controls for any distortion, filtering or modulation parameter in the plugin. The sliders themselves are then moved by a magnetic field surrounding the mouse cursor.

Your cursor movements can be played live or pre-programmed and its motions within the Hexagon can attract or repel macro sliders. In addition, effect parameters assigned to the centre of the hexagon mean the incoming audio level will be modulating their properties.
