W.A Production have released Particle Pie, an available at the intro price of $12.00, increasing to $39.90 after the promotion. The offer ends May 21st.
Your music shouldn’t just be heard… it should be devoured. Particle Pie takes your sound out of the frying pan and into the fire, inviting your audience to chew through layers of spectral chaos and granular decay. Stop settling for stale, predictable playback. It’s time to satisfy your hunger for sonic destruction and serve up a signature sound that’s ready to bite back.
This dual-engine FX suite is designed to mangle and mutate your audio in two completely different ways. On one side, a spectral glitcher reanimates pitch and timbre; on the other, a granular powerhouse scatters your sound into clouds of randomized particles. Combined together, these two processes create glitched-out madness or subtle timbral shifts – it’s up to you. Use Particle Pie to transform predictable loops into evolving textures, add stereo shimmer to vocals, or generate high-energy FX that demand attention.
This deep plugin is built around two independent engines that can be used solo or blended together for complex, interwoven results.
Spectral Glitcher (interface left side): Transform the very DNA of your sound. Use the XY Pad to navigate through different sonic flavors, shifting through light timbral changes to aggressive mangling.
- Character Control: “Weak” options for smoother, liquid-like shifts and “Strong” options for grittier, industrial textures.
- Stretch & Length: Manipulate time itself with these dedicated stretching controls, pulling and pushing your audio into surreal new shapes.
Granular Particles (interface right side): Shatter your audio into a stream of digital particles. Create complex, repeating glitch delays and atmospheric clouds.
- Particles / Size / Spread / Decay: Set the number of particles and their size to create everything from shimmering high-end sparkles to deep, crushing sub-glitches. Control the width to create a massive, immersive stereo field that dances around your listener’s head. Decay lets you sculpt the life cycle of your granular stream.
- Entropy & Pitch: Inject randomness into your particle triggers with the Entropy control, while Pitch sculpt the sound from deep to bright
Built on vector graphics, Particle Pie features a resizable interface. With live metering, you can see the processing in real time. Designed for immediate experimentation, the dedicated Dry / Wet central Pie dials in performances for each module. You can perfectly balance the amount of glitching and granular processing against your original signal. For those who like to experiment, contrast different processing chains with AB comparison and copy / paste. Use the undo / redo buttons to revert any changes.
This creative plugin is built for both speed and ease. Factory presets offer instant inspiration, whether you need subtle timbral shifts or glitch-tastic destruction.
Built for the modern producer, Particle Pie features a clean, responsive interface that fits perfectly into any workflow. Like all W.A. Production plugins, it is optimized for high performance, ensuring that even the most complex spectral mangling won’t weigh down your session.
