But it does not sound as clear as granular synthesis at all. It seems to miss the high-end somehow, but on the other hand, its also a lot smoother, and the low-end sounds more like a new type of sound. For comparison, here is a quick 60x stretch done in snd of the same file: http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~kjetil/music/abbastretch.ogg (If I decrease the grain length, I guess I could make it sound more like the fft version.) > > The program is not complete (is just a quick hack > written in about one hour), but if you are interested, > I can put it somewhere on net (and make it usable and > improve the quality :) ). > Yes, that would be nice!
i'm keen too! ;)
