Delay

Grain Delay

Ableton

Grain Delay is a delay effect that slices the input signal into tiny particles called grains, which are then individually delayed and can have different pitches compared to the original signal. By randomizing pitch and delay time, it creates complex masses of sound and rhythm useful for generating new textures and experimental effects.

Key Features

01Grain-based delay processing with individual pitch and delay per grain
02Sync mode with beat division chooser (delay time in 16th notes)
03Spray control for random delay time variations
04Pitch transposition with Random Pitch parameter for chorusing to unintelligible effects
05Feedback parameter for signal regeneration and oscillation
06X-Y controller with assignable parameters on horizontal and vertical axes
07Dry/wet control routable to X-Y controller vertical axis
