[PD] Granular Synthesis External

[oscar pablo di liscia]

Those are very nice and well done sets of abstractions for doing GS in PD.
And whether one wants to do things using abstractions or externals
may be just a matter of taste or working preferences.
In my case, I wanted to have an external with all the capabilities
offer by GS synthesis and with the possibility of using a great number
of tables both for the audio source and the envelope of the grains, so as I
may
achieve shuffling effects. I also wanted to have full 3D control of the
location of each grain, that's the reason I designed my_grainer~ to
have mono, stereo (intensity panning) and Ambisonic B format output.
If the user wants to use real-time audio input as a source, then she/he
may setup two exchangeable reading buffers. I did not do so because I
am not interested in real-time audio source granulation.
Best
Pablo
