It would be nice if you did another tutorial and focused more on making a granulizer sound good. I've been messing with them a bit, and it's rare for me to make a patch that sounds as good as the granulized sounds in your tunes usually do
I already know about granular synthesis but I wanted to learn more. The way you explained the concept by counting is really amazing. This makes it easier for beginners to understand easily. Thanks for the tutorial Bill.
All of the Glitch Machines stuff is so good, I'm so happy you threw that in there. Definitely do a whole video on FM and PM synthesis, it would greatly appreciated to see it from your perspective . Thanks Bill #hardcore
Yeah. Glitchmachines stuff is so great. They are doing upgrades right now with resizable GUI. Process is very slow but the waiting is so rewarding. Makes their tools awesome. For granular crusher-x too is extremely deep. Cheers
Genius, I was walking home listening to Jon Hopkins new album and wondering how to achieve different sounding ambient textures and I think around 9.20+ is after nailing it for me.... So happy thank you.
Loving these videos! Quick Palindrome tip: you can drag and drop samples into the waveform display or load from any file, not just the factory sounds file. Keep up the great work!
one of the coolest things with granular synthesis is that you cannot produce some granular sounds using traditional synthesis propellerhead has a very cool video with an easy to understand explanation of what grains are etc. granular is the future :D
you are the best. thank you for the free mr bill season 2 pack. I cant remember why i got it for free, i think i found a bug or something on the site but i could be wrong, but still, thank you for your music, your tutorials, your influence on a lot of producers ranging from twisted reggae to pop to psytrance and ofc glitch
fucking love your music. I have not found ANY other artist, that has such an unique and awesome style! Keep it up! (I have no idea what you explained, because I cant use any of this music software. viewed it anyway :) )
Granular synthesis as a definition is not sampling based. Basic granular synthesis uses sine waves. It can use samples as it's input, instead of sine waves. They also don't need to be offset randomly. Granular synthesis is just sound particles. Micro sounds which when played back together sound as one. The way granular synthesis is typically used is 99% of the time, just the "cloud" form of it. But there's so much unexplored territory within it.
Nice. CrusherX (for Mac) is a highly comprehensive granulator too. And check out the work of Curtis Roads, a founding master who composes music/sound purely with granular synthesis.
Nice work man. Another great one. Can you please tell us how are you recording audio and the screen of your pc at the same time? Are you using voicemeter or something similar? I cannot figure out how to do it. I'll be forever grateful for this if you could answer back.
Awesome tutorial! You are always dropping gems. So just to clarify regarding the playback speed for pad sounds you were talking about earlier, it depends on the spray speed? I know samples play slower in lower octaves so that's in play as well but I wanted to clarify is that what Wikipedia meant by the playback speed. Also, my biggest issue with granular synthesis is I have put different sounds trying to make innovative leads or pads that are melodic in tone, and they all end up sounding like this cloud sound you were talking about earlier. Is that normal because I'm trying to get new sounds out of them. They end up sounding like the same cloud sound even though they are different samples. Other than that, granular for understanding what it is doing to the audio is fine, but I just don't get why with different samples, I can't get different tones for making new lead or pad sounds. Once again I end up with that cloud sound in the end result so any tips from your constant use of granular to fix this issue would be helpful
"Every single person on the planet knows what counting sounds like." I think you're forgetting drummers Bill. We only know how to count to 4 and repeat! :P
what is that thing attached to his nose, is it something to curb a chronic nose picking habit or is he borneo-again-headhunter ,( bye the bye this is not hate? ). like the talk on the granulating of sound, very interesting . and he, like true gent saves the best bit for last, cracked me up no end. a great piece of dry humour.
Random Person I think alchemy can do most if not all of what granulator can. I remember I used to have a copy of this synth back when it was still made by camel audio and it allowed u to use granular synthesis.
This mans posture is so good I thought he was standing
lmfaoo
Great posture
Yo for real.
Great chair
I sat up straight when I read this comment
10/10 for the clickbait thumbnail
Better than most UA-cam clickbait - the thumbnail was actually in the video!
i just wanna get laid :(
same
12/10
@@aixcastles effectively doing granular synthesis is how u get laid in the first place
I'll never get tired of your intro.
he should make an indie game soundtrack
There's a stream of him making it on his website.
@@nervousneighbour I saw him making it live ^^
Granular is all about spray n' pray
Yasss
thumbs up for animal crossing at 8:59
I was looking for this xD
GREAT tutorial my dude
If one could drink sounds through a straw, granular would be the type of synthesis needed to reproduce what that might sound like.

It’s amazing how most youtube comments changed to being wholesome over the years
I already know about granular synthesis but I wanted to learn more. The way you explained the concept by counting is really amazing. This makes it easier for beginners to understand easily. Thanks for the tutorial Bill.
This is such a great tutorial thanks - using the numbers as a reference v clever made it much easier to understand what was happening
ooooo palidrone looks amazing! I've been using granulator II for years now. One of my favorite plugins of all time.

this is exactly the Sound i was Looking for. thanks for sharing man.
Lol you better sample that 'sex' at 5:24

Thank you Mr. Bill.
That is all.
One..Twoore..
David lynch was really ahead of all of us
Loving these videos! Quick Palindrome tip: you can drag and drop samples into the waveform display or load from any file, not just the factory sounds file. Keep up the great work!
Not only that, you can make a folder filled with sounds and then randomize them from that folder without changing the articulations.
@@baronvonbeandip interesting
Ahh yes, the ultimate Flume tutorial
Thumbnail at 5:25. You're welcome.
happy to see the studio got such a huge boost!

propellerhead has a very cool video with an easy to understand explanation of what grains are etc. granular is the future :D
Granulator II is a real gem
Thanks a bunch for doing a video on this !!! Love love love granular
that big schnoz ring, love it. Also amazing tutorial!
And I was experimenting with granular synthesis last night, perfect!
Thank you! I’ve been looking for how these types of effects are achieved, I just didn’t know exactly what to call it. 🙏🙏
thank you I enjoy that a lot
Bless 🙏🤙 killer technique. Thank you for the knowledge
Youre my favourite Australian
wonderful
This helped me a lot, thank you Mr. Bill 😁
Great tutorial and really funny too, thanks!
I like the synth Jawas at 8:58.
You know he's been in it for a while when you see SmartElectronix plugs come up
Exoscope is the classic! If I had to pick one "been in it for a while" VST that never get's old, it would have to be CamelPhat 3.
3:33 is just wild sounding, kinda like movie sound effects when someone is loopy
The Mangler is also a really cool one. Has anyone messed with Iota II?
Your videos are awesome, thanks!
great sevx
oh cool... Hi shroom
Thanks man. Ace tutorial as always 💜💜
nice, clear and easy. Great tutorial!!!!! :)
dude this is so helpful. thank you!
@9:00 my cat woke up like 'holy crap what's that sound?' haha
Cool video. Thanks!
9:24 i instantly thought about #flume .
One nosering to rule them all
glitchmachines
At like 8:55 he literally recreated animal crossing speech flawlessly lol
verry dope mr.bill!
The nosering's the key to his success.
you are the best.

also fun fact. Sex is Six in swedish, and also the act of having intercourse aswell

Yessss. Earned a sub here.
9:18 Below Filter B in Granulator, the Frequency shows 666Hz. Mr.Bill is Illuminati confirmed
Oh Cool! I was wondering how to be Oneohtrix Point Never and now i know!
Did you become Oneohtrix Point Never?
Sandman is likely a grain synthesis just based off the name. Like a grain of sand.

Nice analyzer
Thought it is only available in 32bit?
Mr. Bill been in the gym
He's going to need a new avatar, something buff.
good stuff man
Graincube is fab!
thanks
thank u
ableton‘s sampler is also great for granular synthesis
This is kind of what Polyverse's I Wish plugin does too, right?
Nice work man. Another great one.
Can you please tell us how are you recording audio and the screen of your pc at the same time?
Are you using voicemeter or something similar? I cannot figure out how to
do it. I'll be forever grateful for this if you could answer back.

the granular synth got me more than the sex tbh
Whats up Bill, Where would you recommend getting serum wavetables for experimental or heavy dubstep?
you're Australian yeah? I keep hearing fuckin worked into your sentences and I feel at home. haha thanks for the tutorial brah!
I "have" ableton 10.1.6 suit and it dont have granulator II, anyone know why?
that intro :D
I always wait for "if you wanna get glitchy sounding stuff"
"Every single person on the planet knows what counting sounds like."
I think you're forgetting drummers Bill. We only know how to count to 4 and repeat! :P
Palindrome reminds me of qebrus
Does anyone have any other recommendations for Granular synths besides the Granulator and Palindrome? :)
FM - No static at all.
SEX hahahahhaahahha I laughed way too hard there
nice avocado (?) and great tutorial
9:00 sounds like minions
8:50 now I know how the animal crossing voices are made
I like your avocado tattoo
How did I get from a beat saber video to this in 2 videos?
Can I do this with Iris 2?
Don't think so
ok, but why do you use granulator over simpler ?
What headphones are you using Mr. Bill?
what is that thing attached to his nose, is it something to curb a chronic nose picking habit
or is he borneo-again-headhunter ,( bye the bye this is not hate? ).
like the talk on the granulating of sound, very interesting .
and he, like true gent saves the best bit for last, cracked me up no end.
a great piece of dry humour.
Dat intro.
5:25 wish i had some...
sinner
I would describe your style as a mix of Glitch, Skweee and Dubstep. How would you describe it? (there is not enough music that you made...)
I need more
This should be titled “how to make animal crossing speech”
I'm trying to use the granular synth to make risers, do you know how I can automate the fine tune by any chance? It has a limit of 51 only...
use the frequency shifter audio effect
Does anyone know a plugin that does exactly this on Logic?
Random Person I think alchemy can do most if not all of what granulator can. I remember I used to have a copy of this synth back when it was still made by camel audio and it allowed u to use granular synthesis.
My posture is 90%
Grain sizes from 1-50 ms?! More like 1-500 ms. Falcon IRCAM Multigranular ftw!
what did he do at 9:35 to transform the sound from the low drone to the pad
did u ever figure it out lol
He transposed the sample one octave higher
