From Antares, the company that revolutionized professional vocal production with Auto-Tune pitch correction technology, comes Harmony Engine Evo, the second generation of Antares' realtime harmony generating plug-in. Harmony Engine Evo puts professional-quality vocal harmony arrangements within reach of every songwriter, producer, musician, or engineer.

Building on the power and ease-of-use of the original Harmony Engine, Harmony Engine Evo incorporates Antares' groundbreaking Evo Voice Processing Technology for faster, more accurate pitch detection, smoother, artifact-free pitch shifting, and seamless, natural-sounding (if you want it to be) throat modeling. And with the addition of 5 channels of Antares' unique CHOIR Vocal Multiplier, you can now create huge vocal ensembles out of a single vocal line.

With 4 independent harmony voices, a variety of powerful harmony generating modes, humanization features for natural sounding performances, and a flexible real-time preset system for harmony and vocal type, Harmony Engine Evo provides incredibly easy-to-use tools to quickly and easily produce virtually any vocal arrangement you can imagine.

Whether you're an experienced vocal arranger, a songwriter looking for that perfect backup vocal, or a composer experimenting with unique vocal effects, Antares Harmony Engine Evo gives you entirely new ways to create the harmony parts you hear in your head.
