Granular Synthesis. How does it work?

Postby Mr. Bigglesworth » 29 Sep 2013 04:26

So...I'm curious about Granular Synthesis. Like, I know the basic idea behind it in that it's sample based and works off sound grains, but I don't know the how or why of it. I'm also thinking of trying it some day, but I have this condition called 'flat-ass-broke' so I wanna check out something free first.

Last question, does FL have anything Granular capable as standard?

Oh. Sounds a lot less complicated than I thought.

Thanks Eery.

LMMS's Audio File Processor has basic granular synthesis...

But it might set your computer on fire, so be careful

Seamless just made a short video on the Granulizer. He's got a bit of a speech impediment, but is very knowledgeable. You should definitely check out his stuff if you want a quick overview over the native plugins in FL Studio
