Some experimental stuff

[manducator]

Hello,

I made a few tracks with the Granite granular synthesis (http://www.newsonicarts.com/html/home.php)

To be honest, I never know if my experiments are interesting enough for others to listen to, so here they are and all honest feedback is welcome.

I think that I like the last one the best. The second one also.

Thanks, ho66it!

I find them very interesting for sure...

I liked these, the second one in particular

The 2nd one has more harmonic stuff which makes it more engaging. The 4th has a very interesting combination of sounds, I like the two better. All with Granite? Interesting!

Thank you!

Yes, this is done with granite. I made some short samples with other synths (diversion and dune) because you have to start with a sample to feed your granular synth (granite, in this case). The samples are something between 10 and 16 sec.

I imported the samples in granite and started playing with the functions of granite itself. All songs are done with 4 instances of granite and those 4 instances contains the same sample. So 1 song is built out of 1 sample...

I liked them as well. My own experiments with granular synthesis have been way more jarring.

I liked the second piece. I loved the harmonic sweeps on there, and the almost "evil" juxtaposition of the different instances. This was creepy. Good work :maniac:

Wow granite is sounding pretty cool! I think experimenting with sound is the best thing ever. Cheers dude, keep it up!

[manducator]

Thank you, guys!

[V0RT3X]

Thank you, guys!

No problem, thanks for sharing

I totally think experimentation can lead to some great things. Actually i spent the last 10 years or so experimenting heavily and learning stuff on my own which i think is the best for this type of stuff, because it eventually will lead you to your own "sound"

Cheers

Hi manducator, yeah it's nice to listen to your experimentation and the method you followed, as vortex said it can lead you to find your own way and it can lead to some of us to experiment too! Nice!
