PolyFreq Releases Phonon - Modular Granular Synthesis VST3 Plugin (33% Off Launch Offer)

Boutique musical tools-maker PolyFreq has announced the availability of Phonon, its debut plug-in designed as a high-quality sample granulation engine.

Built for intentional and controllable reconstruction of source audio, Phonon focuses on synchronous granular and "graintable" synthesis. Unlike many granular synthesizers that rely on randomization, Phonon provides users with precise control over every grain, ranging from classic textural clouds to malleable tuned tone creation.

Phonon is intended for reshaping beats and designing synth leads as much as for losing time in ethereal granular atmospheres; I hope it will connect people to listening differently, discovering the sounds within sounds.

Nick Mariette, PolyFreq Founder.
