I don't recall seeing any discussion about it, or even simply hearing about it. First time I hear about this plugin.

For people interested into granular stuff.

To be fair, the world might already be suffering from mild granular fatigue. At some point they all smear, freeze, randomize… and politely sound the same. I think we reached peak granular 5 years ago. Different GUIs, same grains, same clouds, same “wow” for about 10 minutes. Nothing against granular but unless someone invents quantum grains, we’re mostly rearranging the same noise in slightly different rectangles.
Its over for Bitwig--CUBASE WON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Totally agree!

Personally I don’t care for this (other) granular plugin, but still wanted to put it out here in case someone might… Since it was not mentioned yet.

Just FYI, DelGrain is included in the eXplorer 10 bundle. I haven’t had a chance to download it yet, but plan to in the next few days. I’m just hoping there’s a light skin option for it.

Curiously i did demoed it right now (because appears some thoughts to grab upgrade to bundle, because it a bunch of things + appears some desire to support Rob).
Need say, i very long time not used Rob plugs, but in last times being at sort of the oldschool wave are appears itchy to get back to roots.
Walked through the fresh stuff - started from WirePluck, ended with DelGrain.

Granular implementation seemed to me strange a bit. Maybe because this not exactly granular but rather delay ? idk. Frankly not so impressed, but was able to catch one interesting trick with modulation though. Again, this was quick test. I think able to squize someting more from that.

WirePluck btw i liked (Even no separate thread at forum huh?) I think that there is sense to upgrate at least because him.

The only thing that hanged me downed a bit this is a bit sluggish UI responsivity (and it seemed to me that in vst3 a bit worse than in vst2, but i may wrong). It's really barely noticeable, but it's there. Dmn i thought I'd find some zero eating' retreat where everything flies, but horse was lying there.
And i even perhaps did remember, that that low fps behavior with UI already was long time ago (i reported perhaps), this starts after some of big update once. So, a bit sad that this not elominated completelly.
(Bad that Rob removed RP section from vendor forum place, that was good times)
