Granulator II is a Max4Live synthesizer based on the principle of quasi-synchronous granular synthesis. It creates a constant stream of short crossfading sections of the source sample, and the pitch, position and volume of each grain can be modulated in many ways to create a great variety of interesting sounds. Old Version of Granulator II. Hey everyone, I messed up and deleted Granulator II 2.2.1, and can't find it to download anywhere. I have 2.2.2, but Ableton isn't. These granulators might be used, but that doesn’t mean they are any less in quality, reliablitiy, power and through-put quantity. When we sell ANY granulator we put our proud name to it. That means all the granulator that are reconditioned by us go through a very strict 10 point maintenance check, you can read more about this 10 point check here. Granulator provides two filters in series, both filters are able to perform several filter modes. Most uncommon and very useful is the EQ mode, with Frequency, Gain and Q control, where the frequency can follow MIDI note pitch.
Aptly called a sound artist, Robert Henke spans the divide between musician and technician. A preeminent figure in modern electronic music, Robert and his collaborative music project Monolake have had an immeasurable influence on the sound of Berlin techno. As one of the founders of Ableton, Robert is no stranger to creating new tools for electronic music production and performance.
Creating the ultimate customized granular synthesizer has been a labor of love for Robert for more than a decade. Enter the Granulator: a granular synthesis-based sample playback instrument.
What is Granular Synthesis
Granular synthesis is a technique that involves dividing a sample into very short pieces, and then playing the pieces back superimposed and crossfaded with one another. These pieces, or 'grains,' are usually under 50 milliseconds long and sound like short clicks when heard individually. But when layered together, grains can produce lush textures with rich modulation possibilities.
Using the Granulator
To use the Granulator, drag a sample onto its waveform display. You can then adjust the length of the grains and the density of their overlap with the Grain control. The playback position within the soundfile is set with the FilePos knob and can be modulated randomly or via the built-in LFO.
In addition to controls that influence the playback of the grains, there are also a number of 'classical' synthesis parameters such as an ADSR envelope, two multimode filters and an FM oscillator that can dramatically alter the overall timbre.
Granulator Companion Device
Granulator comes with a companion device called GranulatorInput that enables live input functionality for the Granulator. When the GranulatorInput device is on a track, any audio on that track can be captured in real-time by pressing Granulator's Grab button. The captured audio is then loaded into the Granulator automatically.
