Excellent question Cyrille.
I happen to agree with you; most granular synth sounds terrible to me also, especially if it's real-time and hasn't gone thru fancy post-processing.

That said, i think the new external that has set this thread in motion is a very good example of what parameters should be available to the user.

Thank you Oscar for this contribution; it's a very helpful external.

I'm curious what else is out there to compare.  Is anyone following this thread aware of other granular synthesis externals out there for PD that are worth considering?
 what does a granular synthesis patch should offer?
i've made a basic one, that offer all mandatory functionalities, but i never manage to be happy with the sound produce.
I still don't know if it's only me that did not like granular synthesis, my patch that did not offer enough functionalities, or the sound-file i'm using.

sorry for the large or generic question.

cheers
Cyrille

    Attached to this message is an updated help file, the

    May be reading this will save you some time checking if there's something

        Hi Oscar,

        Sounds interesting. Can you briefly summarise the approach to granular synthesis in the external and the differences / advantages over existing GS externals such as syncgrain~ and disis_munger~
