Unlike modern additive synths that might offer hundreds of pure sine wave partials, the JPS Harmonic Synthesizer uses 16 harmonic level faders per oscillator.
A "Shape" fader allows you to adjust the waveform from a pure sine to a bit-limited (4-bit to 8-bit) lo-fi tone to match the original hardware's character. Version 2 Enhancements Reason RE JPS Harmonic Synthesizer [WiN]
While it captures the original's quirks (like "Up" and "Random" sequencer modes), it adds modern necessities like polyphony, velocity sensitivity, and 4-stage ADSR envelopes. Unlike modern additive synths that might offer hundreds
If you are looking for that specific —gritty leads, deep basses, and retro sequences—this is the definitive tool for Reason users. It bridges the gap between an 80s-style digital synth and a warm analog machine. If you are looking for that specific —gritty
Three alternative views to help manage the complex harmonic sliders and extended controls more efficiently. Why Use It?
Two "Digital Harmonic Generators" (DHG) with independent controls and the ability to manipulate 16 individual harmonics each.
