CREATIVE SOUND DESIGN WITH GRANULAR SYNTHESIS

Granular synthesis might require a slightly unconventional approach but it’s capable of extremely complex and unique tones. When it comes to sound design, it can do everything from transform a hi-hat into a piano to turn a second-long sample into a minute-long drone. This video, recorded live as part of Point Blank’s Friday Forum series, provides insight into the power of granular synthesis, as well as some of the other creative methods you can learn as part of Point Blank’s courses.
