Great explanation of granular delay.... I also really like the melodies you feed into the pedals. Very nice!

@SyncdAlien 3 года назад

Excellent! Wonderfully detailed explanation. Also very enjoyable to listen to! Liked & shared!

@DoNoise 3 года назад

Thank you, and thanks for sharing!

Excellent video! The graphical description with the Borderlands is a MUST for everyone getting into granular. I owned the Fabrikat and while it is indeed excellent, the lack of presets is a serious dealbreaker. The Particle seems to be the better option as it has built in presets, but I think the Fabrikat sounds more "organic" and less harsh. I currently own the Microcosm. It is unreal, but I kinda miss the fine tuning that the Particle or Fabrikat provide. So here's my take: if you want instant ambient granular goodness (and reverb and modulation and a freaking looper!), the Microcosm is hard to beat. But if you want finer control over the sounds (and a web editor), go for the Particle. I'm planning on getting a Particle as its small size is ideal for a smaller board (the Microcosm is massive by comparison).

Having watched more demos than is good for my health, there does seem to be a Microcosm signature sound. Seems like Red Panda products can go wherever you want

awesome video! 👍 I've got a beebo and microcosm. don't want to miss neither of them. possabilties for ages

@JohnWWarrenGuitar 2 года назад

Very interesting breakdown of granular delays and modulation and comparison of different effects. We are truly in the golden age of effects. I’ve had the Microcosm for about six months and am still discovering its wonders.

@RustyTonesJr Год назад

Thanks for this video. You put a lot of work into it. It's definitely made me lean into getting the Particle V2. And I'll wait for the next Fabrikat to come out.

@RustyTonesJr Год назад

I got the Baklengs. Never been happier. :)

@chiefbucknell 3 года назад

Oh my god. I have been watching previous granular delay videos of yours TODAY and saw you were working on a video focusing on granular delays (I’ve been considering a Particle V2, this time around it’s probably going to happen-that’s the reason for recent, repeat viewings). WOW! You don’t cease to amaze. 😄

@chiefbucknell 3 года назад

Planning on plugging Borderlands into BLEASS Granulizer into Portal plug-in on macOS into ZOIA into Particle V2 into Kaoss Pad Granular into H9 running Crystals algorithm into Microcosm into… 😉

@DoNoise 3 года назад

Fabrikat into Particle has been a favorite combo of mine for a while. You might be on to something there :)

@diarrhea_splatter 10 месяцев назад

What an awesome video! Just reaffirms how much I hate granular delays, but adore their usefulness. I need to just sit down and learn, because your demonstrations are wonderful and lush.

@evilnoisyelectronics5084 3 года назад

Great video!! Very educational for me. I have Empress Zoia and love the granular module... FABRIK look very nice to me... like all the Pladask elektrisk pedal.

@Gibson1976uk 9 месяцев назад

I just bought the Zioa :) wonderful pedal and I think if there was a zioa 2 in the future, it will blow everyone’s minds more :)

@YukiTheSynthDragon 3 года назад

Awesome video ! They just added a very panda like algo to the line 6 helix stuff as well. I will have to do a video about that soon.

@DoNoise 3 года назад

Thanks! The new Glitch Delay is more similar to the Mode 1 of Count to 5 I think. It got even better with the new update. They did a really good job with that effect, imo.

@anthonychilds8193 3 года назад

Thanks for an amazing overview. Of these demo'd pedals I have Fabrikat & Microcosm and I'm trying hard to tell myself I absolutely don't need the other pedals (good luck with that, right?).

Awesome video! I believe the Charlie Foxtrot by malekko may have been the first in a pedal

@paulversey6589 3 года назад

The microcosm seems to take everything to another level. I now see why they are selling used for more than new ones. Looks like it blows everything else out the water

@deanivan3951 Год назад

lol sorry i disagree I own the microcosm and the Zoia. The zoia has thousands of patches by users to download. A module can be made of Anything you can think of. After using the microcosm for a while now it dose ambience really well but the looper is lacking not to mention the popping noises many users have experienced. Support are not bothered in the slightest with replies like " it shouldn't be doing that", no $hit sherlock smh. The Zoia does it all if you take the time to learn it.

@daglenn910 2 года назад

Can granular be a kind of tremolo? Some of the sounds of these pedals, remind me of tremolos. Very detailed video and explanation, I like the Pladask.

@DoNoise 2 года назад

Granular delays might sound similar to tremolo especially when there is no randomness or feedback involved since in that case it’s just slices of sound fading in and out.

@anderson13666 Год назад

Thanks for the video! Still pondering on which one to buy though :( Can't decide between beebo and microcosm. Zoia seems to complex with limited controls (one knob)

@EzriIkramS 6 месяцев назад

About the Zoia, you are correct that it is complex. However, it’s not limited per we because of the one knob. The power is in its programming. You can assign any button or stomp switch to any granular module parameter. You can shape it based on your input device’s signal even. Or reverse the inputs with an invert module. You can make granular delay the main effect, or use the granular module to make an effect sound granular. The one knob is just part of the way to menu dive. But it’s not a tweaking while playing input typically. You can also use external devices like midi controllers and other external cc devices to trigger or change parameters of the granular module.

@ReddenDoom Год назад

Got any of those poly presets available for download? Having a super hard time getting used to my Beebo but those sounded really good.

@DoNoise Год назад

Not at the moment. I’ll have to see if I still have them saved on my unit. You can check out my Beebo video to see how I made the modulated granular delay. It should be easy to replicate it.

Right on time when i’m about to purchase the particle v1. Anyway, do you like the particle v1 or v2 better?

@DoNoise 3 года назад

I haven’t tried the v1 but based on the features and improvements I have no doubt v2 is better.

@KorhanErel 3 года назад

I have both and like them both. V1 is lofi, gritty. Has its own sound and is direct. No hidden features, no midi, no presets. V2 is clean, more capable. Can also be more confusing when one uses it "modeless".

@matthewsaul3533 2 года назад

Is there anything like borderlands available for Mac? It seems like what you did is pretty simple but all the software granular synths I’ve found seem so complicated compared to this lol

@chucksmyth2598 3 года назад

Great video. Why no Mood?

@DoNoise 3 года назад

Thanks! I didn’t feel like the Mood really fit here. Its loop side works more like a freeze rather than delay.

@dtasoudis 2 года назад

Thank you for that! Count to five by Montreal Assembly is similar?

@DoNoise 2 года назад

Count to 5 is more like a regular sampler than a granular sampler, in my opinion. Maybe Mode 2 can work like a granular sampler/delay.

@DoNoise 3 года назад

Not that I know of

@SleepingCocoon 3 года назад

sadly most android audio stuff is a non-starter - between hardware variation and audio latency on so much of said hardware, it winds up not being worth it for developers to put the focus on it since it would require so much of said focus.
