UltimateGrainer : A state-of-the-art granulation processing module

Description

This module offers more controls than the classic granulation module. Useful to generate clouds, to stretch a sound without changing the pitch or to transpose without changing the duration. It features a grain filter with control over type, frequency and Q for each grain.

Density per Second * Grain Duration defines the overall overlaps.

Sliders

Density per Second :

How many grains to play per second

Transpose :

Overall transposition, in cents, of the grains

Grain Position :

Soundfile index

Grain Duration :

Duration of each grain, in seconds

Start Time Deviation :

Maximum deviation of the starting time of the grain

Filter Freq :

Filter cutoff or center frequency, chosen at the beginning of the grain

Filter Q :

Filter Q, chosen at the beginning of the grain

Panning Random :

Random added to the panning of each grain

Density Random :

Jitter applied to the density per second

Pitch Random :

Jitter applied on the pitch of the grains

Position Random :

Jitter applied on the soundfile index

Duration Random :

Jitter applied to the grain duration

Filter Freq Random :

Jitter applied to the grain’s filter cutoff or center frequency

Filter Q Random :

Jitter applied to the grain’s filter Q

Graph Only

Overall Amplitude :

The amplitude curve applied on the total duration of the performance

Grain Envelope :

Emplitude envelope of the grains

Popups & Toggles

Balance :

Compression mode. Off, balanced with a fixed signal or balanced with the input source.
