CrusherX – Version 7
The new features of accSone´s granular processor were unveiled at Suberbooth 2018 (3 – 5 May 2018).

The new version has got a formant filter to produce vowel-like sounds, it supports touch screen control and has a reworked user interface, the processing of parallel working generators has been optimised, new MIDI mapping functions have been integrated and 13 new modulation parameters – so called “Adores” have been added.

I´ve produced a short video showing the new features: https://youtu.be/Dc2cLU19cs4

Let me quote what accSone´s page tell about the new version:

Crusher-X version 7 will again present a couple of features that are unique in the world of granular synthesis: It introduces a grain formant filter mode with "a-e-i-o-u" vowels. This lets crusher-X "talk". This unique process will generate for each grain a specific vowel that could be morphed thru the vovel chain over the vapor modulation model. A special adapted Q model will ensure a smooth transition between a wide “unvoweled" filter and sharp, distinctive vowels. Together with the new introduced wave form selector of the DCO it leads to sound design at its best: Ghost voices, singing guitars, smash choirs, and hypogeal strings.

A reworked UI supports touch screen control on tables and surface devices while still featuring Physical Model faders and wheels. Important buttons are resized to become better controllable with a touch display. The modulation previews became expanded and more granular.

The amount of parallel working generators can be convenient and sensitive controlled with the physical modeling generator wheel. The generator mixer is reworked towards a predictive volume adjustment.

The flexible MIDI and plug-in parameter control assignments supporting now non-linear, free editable mappings with spline and knee points.

13 new introduced “Adore Parameters” allows fast and easy modifications that lead to complex sound changes. They are mapped to corresponding plug-in parameters and can be understood as meta parameters to control several vapor parameters at once with one slide. Each Adore parameter is mapped to several Vapor parameters via a specified set of non-linear control mappings. An Adore parameter modification is treated as normal Vapor parameter modifications, so therefore can be morphed and undone.”

You may well expect me producing a video to overview the new features.

ome fFirst Results of Working with my "Sonic Electron Microscope" or: Extracting Sounds for Sample Players Just a short preview of a little example, which I demonstrate and explain in my next tutorial about granular synthesis. It´s about granular extractions from field recording for sample players and it´s going to be tutorial 19 in the series about accSone´s CrusherX, but it contains a lot of basic methods and techniques, which are quite independent from a certain granular processor. The tutorial is about 3 hours long and will be available around the end of June 2018. Please visit http://www.rofilm-media.net from time to time to stay up to date.   Enjoy your day! Rolf
