Beads as a granular wavetable synth
When both audio inputs
(1)
are left unpatched, and at the
end of a period of ten seconds, Beads loses patience and
granularizes a collection of internally stored buffers of raw
waveforms from Mutable Instruments Plaits’ wavetable
model.
The feedback control
[J]
selects which one of these 8 banks
of waveforms is played.
The dry/wet control
[K]
adjusts the balance between the
continuous oscillator signal, and the granularized signal.
The FREEZE button
[B]
halts the envelope of the grains, and
stops the generation of new grains.
The audio quality selector
[A]
selects the output resolution.

Finally, the PITCH CV input always acts as a 1 V/octave CV
input affecting the root note of the grains, irrespectively of
the position of the PITCH attenurandomizer.
The PITCH attenurandomizer always controls the amount of
pitch randomization of the grains.
