Seurat Granular Engine For Kontakt

US Advanced Grain Recombination Architecture instrument for sound design 28/02/18

Kontakt Hub tells us that Seurat is their powerful new granular engine for Kontakt featuring real recorded instruments in various articulations for movie and sound design. Here's the story in their own words...

Seurat is the first instrument to use our AGRA engine (Advanced Grain Recombination Architecture).

Essentially this is a highly-customisable granular synthesis engine, used across the two complementary voices.

Seurat allows you to manipulate the normal granular controls - grain size, grain frequency, attack and release of each grain and sample position but also adds a range of additional parameter controls for things like grain gain (volume), grain position variation (movement), the space between grains and the symmetry of grain positions in the audio flow offering a range of interesting and often unique outcomes.

Seurat offers an unconventional collection of sounds for movie scoring and sound design.
