Yes The whole sound was made in audacity.

Did you do an extreme amount all at one time or repetitions of the effect? I usually do -10% over and over again. It gets pretty messed up, especially with pitch sliding

I did both ways. I pitched it up, down, up, back down, each time with different amounts of stretching, pitching, and repetition.

Was messing around with DirectWave (for granular synthesis) and playing notes on the keyboard. Thinking I really got something here...

Resulting tune...all sounds are from the glass tick sound. Play relatively loud--gives an awesome feeling:

I already realize that I over-saturated it by a few miles.

Also, I'd like to see some other peoples' textures/atmospheres/pads or other sounds made with granular synthesis.

that has some crazy lowend! i just had a quick look at direct wave what parameters were you messing with to granulize it.

heres mine. its just a metal sheet bending and granulized in hourglass Soundcloud

There isn't alot of granular options in directwave, but the other stuff directwave has can make it sound a whole lot better than if you used Fruity Granulizer or something. Anyway, the sound came from trimming the sample and setting loop points in DW's Sample tab. Then, in the Zone tab, first section...hit the Time tab and activate the time button. The knobs below it are the granular options. I also messed with envelopes, ring mod, phaser, chorus, and reverb. A very important part of the sound is the limiter. The limiter played a huge role in that organic feeling. Click here to download the FLP

Really liking yours btw. That sound has a kind of galactic feeling to it, I think. The drums are nice as well. And that pad sound that plays the chords...very nice and warm

thanks! i personally think it resembles a dieing seal!

Thats cute and cruel at the same time

Here's some track i started to work yesterday and today started to work with the midbass, i haven't done many midbasses from the scratch by myself, so this might sound stupid or boring to you, but in personal level i feel good about it. Maybe needs some more eq, and there's sub layered, or atleast i tried to layer sub under it

Been experimenting with the comb filter in massive for a while and came up with some interesting sounds, since massives comb filter scales with your notes you can lock it to certain harmonics and play along and have the comb filter form chords (the first synth in this clip) or use 2 in series and make a pad of pure whitenoise (2nd synth) or, filter a extremely low pitched saw through a comb in order to make it sound like a typical saw of a higher octave despite the actual saw actually only having a extremely low frequency, therefore making multiple keypresses polyrhythmic to each other (3rd synth)

pretty cool stuff

Thought I'd revive this thread. Made this the other night.
