Granular synthesis redefined
Break your samples apart to build new and unique sounds
Play any audio file like a synthesizer - in tune with your song
Explore a new world of sound design with audio as your raw material
Make a synth from any sound
Grainferno can generate grains at speeds fast enough to cross into the audio range. At these rates, grains stop behaving like texture and start acting like oscillators - turning any audio file into a playable synth voice.
Even at audio rates, traces of the original sonic character remain, giving you unique synth building blocks with the spectral fingerprint of your source audio.
Add modulation and grain-level shaping to build ready-to-use granular synth tones that stay in tune with your song like a traditional synth.
Deep drag-and-drop modulation
Grainferno comes alive in motion, with nearly every parameter available for modulation. Three envelopes, three LFOs, and three random generators give you deep control over evolving behavior, making Grainferno a powerful platform for dynamic sound design. A drag-and-drop workflow makes it fast and intuitive to connect any modulation source to any destination - including cross-modulation between modulators themselves.
Stack as many assignments as you like to let Grainferno's sound continuously unfold with new variations on the source material.
Sculpt, morph and shape each grain
Grainferno can generate grains from two independent source files and morph between them in real time. With seven unique modes to morph between signals, you can create granular soundscapes that continuously shift between the character of each sample.
Shape each grain at the point of generation with Grainferno's per-grain effects to energize, destabilize and transform your results even further. Perfect for hybrid instruments, seasick drones and textures outside the realm of traditional synthesis.
