Granulator

A granulator cuts a sound into small pieces and reorders all of these pieces in a particular way.

Values that may be set:
The Granulator program has many values that can be changed. It is easy to become confused, so it is perhaps wise to learn one at a time.

Grain Length controls the duration of each piece and the longer pieces one uses, the easier it is to recognize the original sound.
Stretch controls how much the sound is to be stretched out in time.
Density controls how much silence the program should place between each piece. The control curves describe the development of the total sound, but the input sound that is drawn behind them need not be of the same duration.
Pitch controls how much each piece is to be altered up or down in pitch.
Random Frequency controls how much the program is to randomly change the pitch of each piece.
Random Time controls how much the program randomly jumps forward and backward in the sound.

Here are some sounds that were made using the granulator:
A sound
One more sound

Here is the original voice, and here is the trumpet.
