Here's a question for you. Do you hear that "resonance" in the audio clip, or do you only hear it when you are playing the guitar/behind the sound hole projection?
Fine. You're not keen on taking it to a luthier. I suggested it because a reputable luthier using a borascope could easily locate an inner crack lying just beneath the surface finish of the guitar. Hope you sort it all out.
I have a similar, TC Helicon Harmonizer which may or may not be the same model you have. My unit has a "thicken button" on it, which I only toyed with once or twice. The harmonizing features works quite well, but as you stated, it sounds decent on headphones, but not so great live, or recording...

I restrung the Yairi with D'Addario phosphor bronze EJ16 strings tonight. Prior to re-stringing, I played my normal warmup with the old Elixer strings still on the guitar, and they still sounded good.

I ordered a variety of D'Addario, GHS, and Elixir guitar strings that I am quite familiar with to experiment with further on my acoustic guitars to attain the best guitar/string marriage that brings out the best sound on an individual guitar basis. I'm...
For the past 15 years (or more) I have exclusively used Elixer strings on all of my acoustic guitars with good results, but recently it occurred to me that I shouldn't be single minded to the extent of using a particular brand of strings on all my acoustic guitars. I'm at the point of purchasing...
If you are indeed researching changes within the music industry....why limit changes to the past two or three years? You need to broaden the scope of your research by at least 60 years (possibly 70 years) to attain an understanding of how it is artists like Robert Johnson, BB King, Chuck Berry...
At the 48 second mark, I hear (in my head) a sweet female vocalist beginning to sing. The first 47 seconds is simply the beginning of a larger piece of music and storytelling.
Use your imagination to go beyond the beginning. Songs are no different than books are. Every good book has a...
