Fabulous little FX tool. It is like a mixture of a Beat Repeat tool, a vocoder and glitchy/stutter effect, not something like a grain delay which the name might suggest. Really can "technoize" drum loops and give them a new touch of life by just blending it in decently with the dry signal. You can quickly get very transformed and interesting new sounds with this one.
Thanks Björn again for this and all the free software you created throughout the years for us and that even without giving a single word about donations or other hurdles to pass over.

Very interesting and quirky sound design tool. Its feature set is a little confusing at first to anyone familiar with granular effects, but after you kinda wrap your head around it (The youtube video on Björn Arlt's own channel really helped me out there) it reveals itself to be a very unique and intriguing box of tricks. What this thing won't do, however, is be your standard granular effect, for that, it'd be wise for you to keep moving on through your journey, though maybe you should grab this thing along the way, (it's free, after all).

It's good for what it does. Also uselful in an effect chain along with a multieffect processor like tantra.
