Freesound - Granular Textures by bassimat

Granular synthesis is a sound design technique that breaks audio samples into tiny "grains," typically 1 to 100 milliseconds long, and then manipulates these grains to create new sounds. This method allows for the creation of textures, soundscapes, and effects by layering, reordering, and stretching these grains in ways that are not possible with traditional sampling or synthesis.
