⌁ HarmonicDAW ⌁

Where Musical Intuition Meets Architecture.

HarmonicDAW is a creative, 64-bit multitrack audio and MIDI workstation for Windows. It provides the familiar, professional surface you expect—tracks, regions, automation, and a master bus—but injects radical creative tools directly into the workflow.

With always-on creative effects, built-in sound generators, and a human-readable .psy project file format, HarmonicDAW lets you arrange, design, and mutate sound instantly—all with 100% undoable, 64-bit precision.

Key Features

1. The Harmonic Grid: Effortless Audio Stacking

Drop an audio clip, switch to Harmonic Mode, and instantly snap your audio to a chromatic scale degree ($0$ through $11$) using Shift + 0–9.

• Instant Tuning: Audio plays perfectly in key and in time with your project tonic.

• Infinite Stacking: Create vocal harmonies, pitched percussion, drone ladders, and evolving overtone series from a single source clip.

• Zero Artifacts: No external pitch shifters, no time drift, and no tedious recutting.

2. Destructive Region Macros (One-Click Chaos)

Right-click any audio region to bypass tedious editing and access instant creative transformations with click-free crossfades:

• Harmonic Transpose: Instantly snap to scale degrees or trigger probabilistic, randomized pitch shifting ranging from Humanized ($\pm5$ semitones) to Chaos ($\pm24$ semitones).

• Random Chop (Shift + C): Slice regions into 1/16-note chunks and randomly delete content to generate instant glitch stutters. Choose from Regular (50%), Medium (65%), or Extreme (78%) intensities.

• Random Replace (Shift + R): Shuffle audio content between three or more selected regions. Keep your exact rhythmic groove while completely swapping the sound slices.

3. Advanced Automation & Signed-Time Transport

• Flexible Curves: Automate every plugin knob, volume, pan, and pitch lane using five curve shapes: Linear, Exponential, Logarithmic, S-Curve, and Stepped.

• Automated Tempo Track: Treat your project BPM as a first-class automation lane to create seamless speed ramps or sudden tempo steps.

• Reverse Playback: Run the entire transport backward with variable tempo. Watch waveforms render in reverse in real time with FX cleanly bypassed.

4. Multi-Loop Timeline

Set up to four independent, color-coded loop markers simultaneously (Shift + L / U / V / W).

• Sequential Playback: When the Loop switch is active, the transport cycles chronologically through your loops ($1 \rightarrow 2 \rightarrow 3 \rightarrow 4 \rightarrow 1$) for evolving arrangements.

• Live-Deck Bouncing: Export with the loop switch on to render all active loops back-to-back into a single, continuous WAV file.
