crusherX-Mac!
v3.23
granular synthesis VST plugin for the Mac
crusherX-Mac!
v3.23
is the pure and native AU (Audio Unit) and VST plugin version of crusherX-Live!
for Apple Intel Mac Computer. Its powerful realtime granular vapor synthesizer algorithm enables you to synthesize very complex sounds and cool surround waves. Features: 120 presets, stereo and 10 channel surround Plugin. Cool and unique Physical Modeling Fader Editor, free assignable AU/VST realtime parameters, real time MIDI control, quatization to host, Physical modelling X/Y controller. An overall multidimensional morphing system morphs the sound between each parameter changes (e.g. on bank loading, on undo/redo). This creates clouds of sweeping, shifting and graining sounds. The morph time can be in the range of 1msec up to 1 hour!
it is more than sound... it is more than music ... it is the crusher!
it is the crusher... for your Mac!

The crusher-X algorithm is based on the traditional granular synthesis algorithm (Xenakis, Roads, Wilkins) invented in the early 1950s. In granular synthesis, short (e.g. 50 milliseconds) sound fragments, "the grains," come from a fixed file buffer. The starting time, length and silence between the grains can be modulated. More than one grain at a time is possible, so you can create complex sound "clouds" from any sound signal.

On the upper left side of the interface you see the vapor effect engine that produces the grains. Each generator generates serials of grains. The parameters of the grains are controlled by the vapor modulations. See "what you hear" on the upper right side in the Grain View visualization window.
