Hey internet! Today we're here to talk about Granular Synthesis and explain what it is and a few case examples for using a granular synth and whatnot. Granular synths are super cool things, and are great for a lot more than just big abstract pad sounds - I highly recommend checking them out!

Stay classy!

This is my favorite production channel right now. Honestly i would probably buy a whole sound design course if you make one.

I am having a cup of coffee, what a coincidnece. LOL. Almost felt like we were chatting over coffer, but you did all the talking while I raised my mug to you several times.
Thanks. Was searching this out, trying to figure out what and how, now that Tal-Sampler added a grain strectch mode, and was fed by the YT your video in the top of the search list.

Какое шикарное видео, картинка, звук, поставленный голос (тебе можно озвучивать аудиокниги, фильмы, игры!!).
Просто сок.
А гранулярный синтез собираюсь применить, но пока еще не сделал этого. Очень нравится его грамотное применение в музыке/электронике. У Max Cooper, Flume, BT - отлично получается.

P.S. один из первых твоих подписчиков/друзей✌🏼

I've been waiting on this video forever. Thanks Cameron.

Wow new appreciation for grains! Hahaha you said we're in a tonal musical territory like its a bad thing.

[Djellowman]

footsteps through granular synthesis is perfect for ASMR

This is great Cameron! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have falcon, and haven’t used the granular engine yet since there’s so many sounds to play with. This is something I’ll definitely try with Falcon.

Hey! That's an AWESOME video, never have seen a better explanation. I simply love sound design and I loved your samples btw, how can I get them? Dunno if I clicked on the rigth link lol

Congratulations! Will continue to follow the channel :)

[leftlane]

wow i'm so glad i found your channel. this is the first video of yours i've seen, and i'm definitely gonna watch a lot more. thank u!

[brianhudson]

Great to get a bit below the surface on granular synths thanks

[NigelMerrick]

Great walkthrough with some awesome examples. Almost makes me scared to get too much into this as I’ll end up spending weeks at my computer reveling in an endless sea of cool noises 😂 Thanks for posting this and good work as always.

This is great. Thank you for your vid!

I’m surprised you haven’t released content on Padshop 2 with the new Spectral oscillator, it seems right up the ally of someone proficient with ambient sound design. I’m currently in FL Studio and itching to try Padshop 2 (and may actually pick up Cubase entirely, provided PS2 comes as a VST as well). A friend of mine is insisting I also look into Pigments2 for granular capability, but in addition to granular, the Spectral oscillator on PS2 seems like a useful/fun sidestep/improvement on Harmor’s own resynthesis capabilities, which I am using now.

Then comes the painfully tough decision of what synthesizer will best compliment Harmor + Padshop/Pigments: Phase Plant or Falcon. Yeah, wish me luck. I could throw in The Dark Zebra for extra indecision, but next to the other two, in 2020...

As a fellow coffee lover ill throw a sub your way just for that intro alone.

[BRXSON]

Incredible tutorial, man. You are a legend!

[dwpix]

Fantastic explanation!
Would you still recommend PADSHOP PRO TO a beginner in grain synth (who is very visually based - I love clear GUI design.

Fruity granualizer is my favorite plugin evr
