This doesn't make any sound for me. I loaded up a sample and I see it but nothing happens. I tried to play it like an instrument, like granulator but no sound. I'm not sure what's going on. |

Yes, thank you for input. I know it's little confusing to use it. It one of my first bigger creations and there's lots of things to improve. Here's the video: http://youtu.be/8s7CRTTuE6A?list=UUvOLk9uQ3eI-5_ZQX6Bpx2A |
hey, I'm wondering why you've renamed the granular parameters? "spray" is a bit more meaningful than "free" to me. I think this is one of the main reasons it's confusing to people. |

Hi. When I was building this device, I have not planed to post it here, so I choosed alternative names for parameters. I hope that this confusion brings happy accidents while people develop new sounds. |
Thanks for this interesting grain device. It's pretty cool, even if some of the parameters are not very intuitive. I really hope you're going to improve it and upload more versions, it really has some potential for granular experiments. Few suggestion: -having a random jitter. Right now we hear hear the back and for jitter. Could be cool to have a really random jitter. -more extreme pitch values -a random pitch for each grains Please keep working on it! I like it. Thanks again. |

*Typo, please read: ''Right now we can ear the back and forth jitter.'' Sorry. Damn we need an edit button on these posts! ;) |

Yes, thank you for suggestions, I will try to fix found bugs and install suggested improvments, but right now I'm working on another device. I'll come back to it right after. |
@NeonBreath The ability to edit comments is a disaster. Especially for archival and searching for future users. Imagine this: User1: "you suck I hate you". User2: "you suck and i hope you go away" User1 edits comment to "i love you" Now, forever the thread makes no sense and makes user2 look like a bad person when it was user1 to blame. Editing comments would create many problems in a place where there is no moderation. I'd rather have little moderation but no editing of comments. |
Would be nice to have set values in the objects' inspectors such that controls had discrete names and descriptions in info-view. Would really help out with the usability. |
it's super weird not easy to control but makes some unexpected results. |
