Phonon

I received this plugin for free from the developer, however I will still try my best to be honest about my opinion with this plugin.

This is a fun, easy to use plugin with a good looking UI that reminds me of older plugins. It features pretty much everything you would expect to see in a granular synth, and it comes with extra powerful modulation capability for good measure. I do believe that often times the modulation capabilities this plugin has out preforms the overall feature set of the synth, leaving me to not use them as much as I would hope to. The small number of presets showcases the features well, however the number may be disappointing for those who use them. The effects are also a bit lacking, so bringing your own is a must.

Overall I think Phonon is a fun, easy to use granular addition to my collection, and I am happy that I spent time creating with it.
