harmoniser

Makes sounds agree

Harmoniser is the British spelling of harmonizer—a person or device that creates harmony.

In music, a harmoniser adds complementary notes to a melody, whether a singer improvising vocal parts or an electronic processor generating parallel pitches: The guitarist ran his signal through a harmoniser.

More broadly, someone who harmonises brings disparate elements into agreement.
