Rob Papen DelGrain

You will see that DelGrain has a lot in common with DelSane, like the creative Disrupt Sphere. The difference is that DelGrain offers a Delay that plays back audio in a granular, or grainy, way. The granular change to the audio can be placed ahead of the Delay, inside the Delay, after the Delay, or parallel to the Delay..

The size of the ‘grains’ can be adjusted, even in a tempo-based way. The length of the ‘grains’ can be tempo-based as well, and there is a SEMI tune feature, with a range of 12 semi-units up and down.

The tempo-based, granular makes it great for rhythmic usage on drums and percussion loops. But also to alienate other audio, such as vocals and sound effects... DelGrain will deliver!.

Additionally, we added a Filter featuring a high-pass and low-pass combination, a Band-Pass Filter, and a Vocal/Vowel Filter, which can be placed after the Delay/Granular combination at different spots.

Also, before the audio enters the Granular Delay, we added a ‘Distortion’ module, making the sound options even more exciting.

Cake on the ice is the ‘Disrupt Sphere’ to control the various DelGrain parameters in its unique creative way!

Of course, we understand you would take another Delay, which claims to be different, with a GRAIN of salt, “pun intended”, but be sure that DelGrain will deliver.

FEATURES

• DelGrain combines Granular Delay with Tape Delay, a distortion module, an analog-modeled Filter section, and various routing modes, all controllable by the creative Disrupt Sphere.
• Dry/Wet and FX Mix controls
• Distortion parameter with Rectify mode option.
• Granular (Grain) Modes:
• Pre-Delay:  Grain > Delay > Filter
• Delay: Delay + Grain > Filter
• Post Delay: Delay > Grain > Filter
• Grain Filter: Grain > Filter and parallel Delay
• Delay Filter: Delay > Filter and parallel Grain
• The Left and Right Granular Delay ranges from 1.0ms to 4096ms. In tempo-sync mode, from 1/64 Triple note to 1.1 dotted bar.
• Granular Size control from 1ms up to 1024ms. In tempo-sync mode, from 1/64 Triple note to 1.1 dotted bar.
• The  Left and Right Tape Delay ranges from 1.0ms to 4096ms. In tempo-sync mode, from 1/64 Triple note to 1.1 dotted bar.
• Tape Delay has Low-Pass and Hi-Pass Filters.
• ‘Equal Feedback’ feature gives the Stereo Granular/Delay a smooth equal Left and Right tail Feedback.
• Cross Feedback option
• Filter modes include 12dB Low-Pass and Hi-Pass combined, BandPass Filter with Q control, and Vox Filter with Vowel control.
• The creative side of DelGrain is the ‘Disrupt Sphere-Slider’. This Sphere-Slider can be connected to the various Delay parameters, and by moving the Sphere-Slider, you can dynamically change multiple parameters.  Also, if you move the Sphere-Slider, it can move back to the Center in a tempo-based way, which we call the ‘Spring’ feature.  Very dynamic changing Delays are possible using this ‘Disrupt’ feature!
• To avoid muscle pain... You can also use the ‘Lazy Mode’ so that the movement of the Sphere-Slider can be automated in different directions, which allows you to also create creative new types of modulation sounds.
• An ‘Audio Follower’ includes a ‘Side Chain Input' that can be used to influence various parameters, including the ‘Sphere-Slider Disrupt’ parameter itself.
• The ‘MIDI & MOD 1 - 4’ control section can be used to influence various DelGrain parameters, including the ‘Disrupt Sphere-Slider’!
• GUI Sizes 100,125,150, and 200%
