Martin Adler has released ShoHarmony, available for $5.99.
Play the Japanese sho through its eleven traditional aitake clusters, explore how they connect, train your ear, and jam inside your DAW via AUv3.
Sho Harmony is an instrument lab dedicated to the sho – the Japanese free-reed mouth organ used in gagaku court music.
Features include:
- Play a synthesized sho by hand, or sound any of its eleven traditional aitake tone clusters
- Combine clusters or tap individual pipes for fully custom voicings
- Transitions: a map of how the eleven aitake connect, based on how many pipes they share
- Sequencer: build, save and export progressions as MID or audio
- Ear Trainer: learn to identify each aitake by ear
- Theory: the instrument, gagaku, and the aitake explained, with real sound examples
- Includes an AUv3 instrument plugin – play the same sho synth from any MIDI track in GarageBand Logic, or AUM
