Description

Oi, Grandad! is a 4-voice granular synthesizer built using the HISE development environment.

Each voice in the synthesizer can host a .wav or .aif audio file, allowing for extensive real-time manipulation.

The plugin includes granular controls such as position, grain, density, detune, spread, and pitch.

Each voice is equipped with a dedicated filter, amp envelope, and delay processor.

The synthesizer also features 12 independently triggered complex modulation sources.

A drone button is available for sustained playback, making it ideal for creating ambient soundscapes.

The plugin supports crossfade and round-robin modes for more dynamic sound creation.

It is designed to be used in various digital audio workstations (DAWs) and supports VST3 and AU formats.
