gd-grainscan2
gd-grainscan2 is a Max For Live device that I originally created in the Max/MSP Pluggo environment around 2003 & updated for M4L in 2024. This is a variation on my grainscan1 plugin. Its another flavor of granular synthesis. I kept the controls a little oblique on purpose for this one, that is meant to encourage maybe a different kind of exploration. Each parameter has a range slider that you can use to select a value, some portion or all of the range. Use shift-click to set the high and low values for each range, use command-click to slide a range up or down. Location is where in the incoming audio buffer will be processed, Duration is the size / length of the grains, Pitch is the pitch of the grains, the slider below the range bar will move up and down the chromatic scale. Voices sets the number of grains & grain speed sets the speed of the granular engine. Experiment and have fun with it!
Check out the rest of my Max for Live devices (mostly conversions of my older Pluggos & some other things). I have at least 25 with more to come as I get around to uploading them here. They have all been tested and work on Ableton Live 11 & 12 (and probably earlier versions as well).
If you have any comments, issues, requests, bugs, etc. feel free to get in touch. Thanks for your support.
Enjoy and have fun!
