Thank you VERY MUCH, Mr. Ekmun.
For those of you who've never used GranuLab, it is an absolutely
wonderful
granular synthesis program.
It's not like any other granular proggie I've used. I use it to
generate
unusual texures, uber-crunchy material for percussion and other
BADWEIRDNESS.
It allows you to control the parameters of the grains with more depth
than
programs like Crusher-X or the native granulators in AudioMulch (BTW,
those
are both fine programs, no slight intended).
But it is not for pink boys. Do not expect Moog basses or pretty pads
or
"soaring leads".
Expect full-tilt, bull goose loony OTHERNESS.
I recommend it most highly.
