Product Description

  •   Granular synthesis redefined Break your samples apart to build new and unique sounds Play any audio file like a synthesizer-in tune with your song Explore a new world of sound design with audio as your raw material A firestorm of granular power Grainferno is an advanced granular instrument built around a new way of synthesizing sound from existing audio. Its next-gen grain engine breaks your samples into microscopic fragments and rebuilds them into entirely new textures. From pristine tonal clouds to experimental digital noise
  • Grainferno turns your sample library into an endless source of playable inspiration. <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https: //www.youtube.com/embed/MXoQfRAxocE?si=hqidrAzPJZ1l_J3p" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe> Make a synth from any sound Grainferno can generate grains at speeds fast enough to cross into the audio range. At these rates
  • grains stop behaving like texture and start acting like oscillators-turning any audio file into a playable synth voice. Even at audio rates
  • traces of the original sonic character remain
  • giving you unique synth building blocks with the spectral fingerprint of your source audio. Add modulation and grain-level shaping to build ready-to-use granular synth tones that stay in tune with your song like a traditional synth. Deep drag-and-drop modulation Grainferno comes alive in motion
  • with nearly every parameter available for modulation. Three envelopes
  • three LFOs
  • and three random generators give you deep control over evolving behavior
  • making Grainferno a powerful platform for dynamic sound design. A drag-and-drop workflow makes it fast and intuitive to connect any modulation source to any destination-including cross-modulation between modulators themselves. Stack as many assignments as you like to let Grainferno's sound continuously unfold with new variations on the source material. Sculpt
  • morph and shape each grain Grainferno can generate grains from two independent source files and morph between them in real time. With seven unique modes to morph between signals
  • you can create granular soundscapes that continuously shift between the character of each sample. Shape each grain at the point of generation with Grainferno's per-grain effects to energize
  • destabilize and transform your results even further. Perfect for hybrid instruments
  • seasick drones and textures outside the realm of traditional synthesis. Give new life to your samples With vastly different results depending on the source material you feed in
  • Grainferno lets you explore and transform your existing sample collection. Drag and drop any audio file into Grainferno - or a stem from your latest track - to deconstruct and rebuild it into something entirely new. Start new tracks
  • build unique signature sounds
  • or generate elevating textures for your songs from their existing elements. If you rely on loops/samples in your music production
  • Grainferno lets you add a personal touch to stand out from the crowd. Essential effects for sound design Grainferno includes a powerful suite of onboard effects designed to shape and extend its granular engine. From ambient delay and reverb to analog-inspired modulation and multimode saturation
  • each effect is built for creative sound design rather than static post-processing. With a reorderable signal chain and nearly all parameters available for modulation
  • Grainferno's effects become part of the instrument itself. Packed with new inspiration Grainferno includes a vast collection of curated presets and samples from world class sound designers to help you navigate its entire sonic range. Use the Play View
  • with four powerful macro controls
  • to audition and tweak the factory content. With hundreds of presets and factory samples you'll find a stunning array of prebuilt ideas to kickstart inspiration in your tracks. Finally
  • the five included template configurations in the plugin's bottom panel let you quickly explore the core applications of granular synthesis with any sample loaded.   Peter Kirn "Well - I have no idea what you did with the granular engine
  • but it sounds like nothing I've heard before. Fantastic." Liam Howlett (The Prodigy) "It sounds killer man
  • totally different to anything I've heard out there. Great work" Virtual Riot "Great granular playground for everything from beautiful pads to absolute chaos" Plugin formats: VST
