6.7 Aetherizer
Aetherizer effects
The Aetherizer is a groundbreaking new effect introduced in ABSYNTH 5. Based on a granu-
lar delay, it allows you to further process the signal on the grain level via a transposition, a
feedback loop and a bandpass or comb filter, before sending it to a full-featured post-delay
section including its own feedback loop.
Each grain gets individually sent at a random position in the panoramic stereo field. This
notably allows a distinct surround positioning for each single grain if you were to activate the
Surround Panner!
Furthermore, every processing happening on the grain level can be randomized to your liking,
thereby producing evolving and unpredictable results.
Last but not least, all parameters (including the randomization parameters) of the grain level
can be controlled via a modulation source, internal (Envelope/LFO) and/or external (Macro
Control).
The Master section corresponds to Aetherizer‘s post-delay. The lower part of the Aetherizer
specifically deals with the grain cloud:
•
On the left, the Grain section allows to control the shape of the grain cloud.
•
On the right, the Tone section controls the pitch and filtering of each grain.
