Patchpool has announced Granular Worlds for Steinberg's Padshop Pro.

It will use samples generated by acoustic instrument like woodwinds, brass, string instruments and Okarina. Field recordings, various objects, glass sounds and vocal samples will also find their way into these granular worlds. All patches will have the Modwheel assigned and Aftertouch assigned when a sound needs some extra expressiveness.
