GRFX
GRFX – Granular Effects is a powerful new audio plugin designed to radically transform sound through the magic of granulation. GRFX takes granular processing to new creative heights—offering a flexible, expressive, and highly playable environment for sound design, experimentation, and exploration.
With GRFX, users can break down ordinary audio into micro-particles and rebuild it into evolving pads and drones, glitchy rhythms, ethereal textures, or alien soundscapes.
Whether sparse or dense, shimmering or chaotic, GRFX is your sandbox for bending reality—layering, modulating, and shaping sound through time and space.
At the heart of GRFX is the Harmonic Triangle: an interactive, three-point control panel that morphs your sound into chords, arpeggios, and microtonal variations. This unique interface invites exploration and “happy accidents,” especially when combined with the plugin’s four cross-modulatable LFOs.
Modulation is made effortless with drag-and-drop routing, instant amount control, and a global Modulation Panel. A probability-based routing system lets users direct grains to the two multi-effect engines, the Mixer, and dedicated Delay and Reverb sends—each with independent routing for rich, layered sonic results.
Features include:
- Granular engine for real-time audio deconstruction and transformation
- Harmonic Triangle for tonal and microtonal transposition
- 4 LFOs with cross-modulation support
- Drag-and-drop modulation
- Probability-based grain routing
- Two multi-effect engines
- Dedicated Delay and Reverb sends
- Input buffer freeze, slice and size controls
