Jono Buchanan breaks down a melody's harmony, then builds harmony parts from a copy of the lead with Flex Pitch: thirds first, then sevenths, splitting notes, chord changes and the extended Flex tools, finishing with a backing-vocal mix treatment.

Pairs the theory of choosing harmony notes with the practical steps of building and mixing the parts in Logic.
