HARMONICS – A NEW LEVEL OF MUSICALITY AND CONTROL

HARMONICS
Cobalt Saphira is an advanced harmonics shaping tool for mixing and mastering that lets you add rich harmonics to your tracks in order to give them analog musicality, depth and "glue."

A NEW LEVEL OF CONTROL
Designed for highly trained ears, Cobalt Saphira gives you an unprecedented level of digital control over different aspects of the harmonics you are adding:

Edge and Warmth – for separately controlling and balancing even and odd harmonics
4-band EQ – for separately shaping the frequency spectrum of each type of harmonics
Harmonics modes – seven different modes, with graphical representation so you can see the changes in harmonic structure
Tape – five tape speeds for adding wow and flutter modulation in order to give your tracks extra musicality and depth

A NEW WAY TO GLUE YOUR TRACKS
We often use the term “glue” when touting the benefits of compression. But the “glue” we hear from a good compressor is many times the result of added harmonics. Cobalt Saphira lets you directly control your harmonics without compression, helping to glue your tracks and turn them into a more musical, cohesive mix.

DEPTH: THE HOLY GRAIL
Achieving balance and clarity in a mix is expected. Achieving real depth in a mix is where they single out the pros. Cobalt Saphira allows you to inject this sought-after quality into your mixes.

Excelling on groups and sub-mixes and in mastering situations, Cobalt Saphira gives you rich harmonic enhancement that can be creatively tailored exactly how you like it — a full palette of analog sound for you to pour all over your tracks.

Edge and Warmth controls – allowing you to balance tube, solid-state and transformer qualities in order to achieve various levels of even and odd harmonic enhancement
4-band EQ for separate control of the frequency spectrum of the even (Edge) and odd (Warmth) harmonics

“I love how harmonic distortion and the nonlinearity of analog gear affect and color a sound. It makes the sound seem much more real and 3D to my ears. Cobalt Saphira does a fantastic job emulating just that. It can add warmth, edge and width to your tracks. I love what it does to virtual instruments and instruments recorded direct. It really adds that extra element of realness to it. But where I feel Saphira really shines is on subgroups and busses. It adds dimension and depth that helps glue the mix together.”

“I recently used the Cobalt Saphira and The King’s Microphones chained together for a vocal effect. Cobalt Saphira is capable of providing very accurate harmonic distortion, tailored to a specific vocal range, and the King’s Microphone added a particular vintage style EQ. Together these delivered the exact vocal sound I was looking for, in an instantly recallable package.”

“I use Cobalt Saphira on cello. Saphira adds some subtle depth and warmth to the cello. Most noticeable is when bowing up high; it thickens and smooths out the high strings without sacrificing the detail in the playing.”
