one of the main reasons that i bought it years back.
By the way, checked GRAIN and is very close on what i want. I just could not "automate" the upper loop bar to move it freely. I can do it with the mouse, but could not assign it to a parameter in ableton. = (
did you mean to say that you tried 'Granite' and couldn't figure it out, or what? i think 'GRAIN' is something else altogether? i pulled up 'Granite' tonight just to check and it does exactly what you want.
What im looking for - as in the video at the 1st post - is a way to automate the whole bar loop scaning thorugh the whole sample. If at the same time can do this "scanning bar" longer and shorter would be also amazing.
i didn't try to "assign" them, but the parameters "Start" and "Length" come up in Ableton. these control the two blue loop bars in the display. "Start" scans through the sample, and "Length" can be controlled at the same time to do the "scanning bar longer and shorter" thing. the other parameters (Space, Speed, Density) need to be set correctly for it to sound right.
Tested automation on start position in Live 9 and its working fine here. Seems quite difficult to get a clean loop though, and minimum loop length is a little on the long side. Density set to minimum, speed at 0%, all modulations disabled, 'space' becomes the loop length. I suspect there's a proportionally applied 'jitter' on grain onset times as Granite is fundamentally built for asynchronous grain onset effects. Still does a pretty good impression of the effect as long as the min loop time is good enough for the purpose, if lacking the precision looping I got out of The Mangle when I tested earlier.

Can Fruity Slicer or Edison do this? I'll have to check, I've never tried it. I think you can buy them for any DAW though.

I'm wondering Breaktweaker maybe too, if your CPU can take the abuse.

Just a quick update i found.

If you are on ableton live, Granulator (max for live device, from Monolake - i think ) can do it quite easily, and you can move the whole bar by midi with a knob.
Transitions are not very smooth, but it does the job, i will stick to it until i find a better solution
