Frequently Asked Questions
Granular synthesis chops audio into tiny fragments ('grains') and manipulates them individually, creating more complex and textural effects than typical reverb or delay.
The digital aspect controls parameters; the audio signal itself remains entirely analogue, preserving the warmth and character you'd expect from a high-quality analogue filter.
While other granular modules exist, the Grainity Black’s combination of a fully analogue signal path with a compact footprint and a well-integrated multimode filter provides a unique and compelling offering.
