Inertia Sound Systems Granulizer 2 v2.3.0b VST VST3 AU [WIN MAC LINUX]
GRANULIZER 2 is a granular synthesis software synthesizer intended for creative sound design.
It features a very versatile DSP engine that is able to deliver a wide sound palette, with sounds varying from metallic crunch and grainy fuzziness to smooth reverb-like tones, spectral widening or chaotic soundscapes.
Updated Design Language
Following the steps we took during the INSTINCT development process, we went for a cleaner interface. While 2.1 was pretty sleek, the way the new components are designed gives us more freedom and focus solely on what’s important.
This is massive
Our greatest update yet. This has been in the making for over a year. It was created from the bottom up, to be used by musicians, sound designers and artists. We want you to be as free as possible when you’re in your creative zone.
Everything is Better
We implemented a newly designed, high quality granular engine with controls over grain size, density, speed, grain envelope shape, pitch, and timing randomization.
You are now able to sync to host option for the delay time parameter and the grain speed.
The Interactive waveform viewer has zoom in/out and loop selection capabilities.
Follow the Grain
GRANULIZER 2 boasts a grain warping module, featuring a feedback modulation scheme, with controls for smear, smooth and depth, that provides with atonal variations or perceptually acts as a second oscillator.
The Grain FX module has spectral processing per grain, manipulating grain sharpness / shape, spread, and frequency shift.
The HIVE
The HIVE section of GRANULIZER 2 is a high quality diffusion delay featuring zero delay feedback analog modeled filters with subtle soft saturation, infinite feedback, control over diffusion amount, size, and more.
The Preset System
GRANULIZER 2 comes with custom built presets, with sounds ranging from ambience, drones, glitches and synths. You can create your own from scratch or build upon the ones that already included. The possibilities are endless.
Themes
For you late night dwellers, we felt that our default theme messed with your low light/chill vibe. So, starthing with GRANULIZER 2.2, we include a dark theme. Moving forward, we will support more options and maybe user styled themes, if you feel the need for it.
Preset Packages
We try to be as responsive in the forums we post and respond to each of your queries. Hearing you out, has given us the ability to deliver better products. You are part of Inertia. This new feature, brings us closer together.
A new section in GRANULIZER, that is dynamic. Working with some of our new friends in our community, we built a system that allows us to publish new packages of presets, in real time. These are people we trust, and they delivered great sounds, that will help you in your musical endeavors.
Tha being said, we want each of you to get a chance to be part of this. Soon we will call out to you, in order to publish new packages.
