GRAINSPACE PARAMETERS

Grain Parameters (Yellow Knobs)

GRAIN SIZE

Sets the size in milliseconds for each grain. Range: 16ms to 500ms

DISTANCE

Sets the distance between each grain. Increase to generate and overlap grains getting a richer texture.

PITCH

Change the pitch of each grain in semitones according to the selected PITCH SCALE

FEEDBACK

Increase the feedback in the granular delay line. Useful to create delay and shimmer effects. Most effective if used while modulating pitch and size. CAUTION: can create a VERY LOUD signal.

FREEZE (Knob + Switch)

When on, it stops recording the incoming audio and loops the internal buffer. You can use the grain parameters to travel inside the recorded audio. You can also sync the freezing, to get time varying effects. HINT: map the Freeze Switch to your controller for performing live.

POSITION

Changes the reading position from the recorded buffer. Positive values creates a delay effect, while negative values creates a reverse effect.

STRETCH

A crude but nice sounding time stretch algorithm. Positive values creates a stuttering acceleration of the signal, while negative values slow it down. Very dirt and glitchy.

Grain Filter Parameters (Yellow Knobs)

TYPE

Sets the type of filter you’ll be using.

CUTOFF

Sets the filter’s cutoff frequency in Hz.

RES

Sets the filter’s resonance. LPF6 and HPF6 are not affected by this parameter.

SAT

Increase the saturation of the selected filter.

LFO 1 & 2 (Red Knobs) WAVE RATE AMOUNT DEST UNI

Sets the LFO waveform. Sets the LFO speed. Modulation amount from -100% to 100%. Sets the parameter that will be modulated by the current LFO. When enable, will switch the LFO output from bipolar to unipolar.

RAND 1 & 2 (Red Knobs) DEST AMOUNT

Sets the parameter that will be modulated by the current LFO. Modulation amount from -100% to 100%.

Grain Output (Green Knobs) PLAYBACK MODE
SMEAR GRAIN VOL

Sets the plugin playback mode. In Stereo each channel is independently processed; in Mono the channels of the incoming signal are summed; in Side, only the difference between channels is processed.
Smears the incoming audio signal by processing it with a chain of allpass filters
Adjusts the volume of the granulated signal. Range: -12db to +12dB

GRAIN BLEND

Mixes the dry and granulated signal and send it to the chord resonator.

Chord Resonator (Blue Knobs) CHORD DECAY TUNE GAIN
MIX

Sets chord type. When set to “None”, it works as a resonant comb filter. Sets the decay length of the resonator. Sets the root note of the chord. Adjusts the volume of the resonator. Range: -12db to +12dB
Mixes the dry and processed signal and send it to the reverb.

Reverb (Blue Knob) REV DECAY
REV MIX

Increases the reverberation time Adjusts the reverberation amount

GLOBAL CONTROLS (Footer) INPUT / OUTPUT PITCH SCALE ALT STRETCH LEGACY
MIX

Pre/Post effect gain Quantize the grain pitch to the selected scale Alternate stretch mode Sets the engine in LEGACY MODE, for compatibility with patches made with v2.3 and lower. In this mode, the Grain Buffer is reset to 2 seconds. Dry/wet signal mixer.

RESIZING CONTROLS (Audiority logo menu)

Small / Default / Big Size

Reduce, reset or increase the size of the plugin interface.

Resizing Corner

You can resize from the bottom right corner of the GUI
