Grainspace (audiority), anything similar/better?

[martiu]

zerocrossing was talking about Crusher X UI, not autochroma

[kraster]

Oh my bad.

If it was about crusher X I agree. That thing looks like a spaceship.

Sorry, Zero crossing.

[avid_d]

My apologies to zerocrossing.

The one thing I got correct is that I am no genius!

[zerocrossing]

I am definitely no genius but I am with Kraster on this one. I really like the interface and have found Autochroma very easy to use.

That’s awesome, but we were talking about Crusher-X.

My apologies to zerocrossing.

All’s forgiven!

Give SaltyGrain a try, it’s been updated last year and it is one of the only granulators allowing per grain filtering for granular tone madness.

I would honestly say get "Salty Grains" for most standard granulated delay buffer effects. And then if you really want to dig deep, get crusher-x or reaktor. All the normal "granular sounds" that you would think of (freezing time, pitch shifting, etc) are easily done with "salty grains". When you want really hardcore control of each grain in a massive cloud of them, then crusher will allow you to do that.

I like anything that allows for as much "per grain parameterization" so different settings on each grain rather than a "simple" variable rate grain player with an FX section at the output. I'd love to see a Realtor ensemble or a vst 3 plugin that has an output per grain routing option. The newer Sugar bytes Granular processor is pretty cool, but a bit steeper in price than it needs to be. I still like salty grains for the majority of my needs I don't need a super deep amount of control.

A panning per grain would be all it needs and some do it.
I have Max/MSP patches that route randomly to 8 outputs for a multi speaker setup… Then let 48 grains play at the same time…

Yeah GRM Tools' Granular has crazy routable outputs. I've never bothered to set it up. I started making something in pure data that had lots of per grain processing but it turned into a mess that was only good for making wacky noise.

Kentaro Stranular is one of the best, it is pure granulator though, you need to add your own reverb

No longer for sale there, now that Kentaro has a site:

Kinda granular-ish Max4Live device that just recently hit my radar:

I may eventually get GRAINSPACE but for now I am considering Graindad because of the sale.
People seem to love the The Harvester mode which has gotten my attention.

Graindad has randomization on some parameters.
I hope Graindad is multi-touch capable.

I was initially put off by all the Graindad presets that seemed very unspecial in the demo. Sugarbytes is a quality company though. Grainspace is a sure best with it's chromatically glowing shiny shimmering "Chord Resonator" that is completely unique in granulator effects. I used it in a song that I think Warp Records would pay me for in a heartbeat but Bleep.com their distribution service is so bad now that I don't think I can build back my 20 year old carreer inhibitions to join a label. I hate phone calls anyhow and I hate business deals and all deals except quick easy transactions better than a Chevy Transam.

The music world is on a lull now and almost everything has big sales these days so I bought Salty Grain. It's good but in ways not great. There was a site that had a bunch of free audio units I forgot the name of called something like Destroy FX or something that offered plugins like Salty for free that were as deep.
