I first learned about granular synthesis about 8 months ago and it is easily my favorite sound design technique to mess around with.

I´m gonna get a lot of fun with this. thank you
Hey man, since you are using both Logic Pro X and Ableton, I was wondering if you could make a tutorial on how to switch from Logic to Ableton as you've done. I'd love to also make the switch but Ableton seem so intimidating and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. Thanks for making this sick content!
Awesome
Just found out FL have a granular synth got some wierd sounds from it. Can you layer parts of a song with your main song if you remove automation? Maybe it works to get some extra energy during buldups but not sure if it would sound any good :P Your shirt is amazing!

Learned about granular synthesis a long time ago, just jnterested in flume. Im an FL user, and it comes with a native grainulizer called fruity grainulizer. I really wish it was loadable in patcher :'( but unfortunately its not.
If anyone here uses Bitwig, it's sampler has granular playback. That, along with the amazing modulation system is just an absolutely ridiculous amount of creative possibilities :D
Cool 👍👍👍

It just chops the sample and repeats it very fast. And you pick how fast and how short the chops are. When you play something that fast and add reverb it make it sound like a solid sound.

Can't you do this without having to use the expensive software? can't you just put simpler on a tight loop with some reverb for the same effect?

No, granular synthesis uses variations in the loop, so not every loop is the same size or start point.

You have to keep everything in the same key. I failed to mention this. My vocal sample as in the same key as my song. This is why I wrote the sample in C3 which will play back your sample in the key it original is in. If your song is in C or any other key, make sure the samples you’re granulating are in that same key.
why you change you're DAW ?

I thought he used logic ... he switched.
Pigments is not a granular synth per se but rather power synth so do not compare it to quanta it is not just. Pigments is the best value/ capabilities overall powersynth maybe pigments and phaseplant since it got recently granular engine.

I actually like these algorithms that pigments has. Lotta people mention omnisphere 2, but I honestly was never a fan of omnisphere's granular synthesis. Ive been using a really old, but really powerful old granular resynthesizer that I won't name. Anyway, Im gonna check out pigments
