Grains

Grains by Lunacy is a real-time granular effect that turns any audio into shimmering particle clouds, glitchy percussive grooves, and evolving rhythmic soundscapes. You get surgical control over grain density, size, pitch, arpeggiation, cloud delay, and randomized motion, all through an intuitive visualizer and interface. Build your own grain cloud with synchronized rate, size, envelope shapes, pitch, and arpeggiators, then add random spray, width, reverse, or detune for unpredictable textures. A built-in delay module feeds back into the grain engine, creating cascading granular clouds that feel alive. Use it as a VST, AU, or AAX plugin in any major DAW, or inside BEAM with up to three Grains nodes in serial or parallel. With 50 presets from leading sound designers, it suits producers, sound designers, and experimentalists chasing fresh textures and rhythmic inspiration.
