Things – Texture

Granular Reverb

'Things' is going to be a series of smaller plugins covering a wide range of effects, focused on sound design and creativity.

The first in the series is Texture, an easy to use granular reverb with pitch shifting and mid/side mode. Texture can transform any sound into an ambient soundscape, or add that drone vibe to your tracks. This plugin was inspired by the techniques used in the soundtrack and sound design of the award-winning indie game The Swapper.

Mid/Side

What is Mid / Side?

In a stereo signal, the Mid channel is considered the centre and contains both Left and Right channels. Boosting the Mid channel results in a more mono sound.

The Side channel instead contains the difference between the Left and Right channels. Boosting the Side channel results in a more spacious or wider sound.

Mid / Side Mode

When the Mid and Side mode button is engaged, the granular effect is applied only to the Side part of the input signal. The Mid is instead attenuated, creating a special stereo width effect. The reverb is always applied on both Mid and Side parts.
