Turn your samples into evolving clouds, shifting harmonics and deep textures. The Grain Field gives you a direct view of the source waveform and active granular region, so position, grain size and movement stay connected to what you hear.

Tip: switch ORIGINAL and SPECTRA GRAN while the audio is playing. The comparison uses synchronized playback with a short crossfade to avoid clicks.
Watch Spectra Gran In Action.
See Spectra Gran create granular clouds, spectral motion and evolving textures inside the real plugin.
Note: The source audio used in this video is for demonstration purposes only and is not included. Spectra Gran is a granular sampler - load your own samples to create your own sounds.
Shape The Spectrum
Spectral Mode
Activate the SP control to switch from the conventional Grain Field waveform into Spectral Mode. The central display becomes a frequency-domain spectral-grain view, showing regions and bands that can be shaped as part of Spectra Gran's granular/spectral workflow.
Switch. Shape. Reshape.
Built For Every Environment
Light Mode
Spectra Gran can be used in both Light and Dark interface appearances. The workflow stays consistent, and Spectral Mode remains clear in the brighter UI when you want a more open visual environment.
Core Engine
Granular Cloud Engine
Advanced real-time granular cloud synthesis for evolving textures, atmospheres and motion.
Sample-Based Workflow
Design from your own audio material with drag and drop sample import and waveform interaction.
Transport-Synced Playback
Designed to work inside modern DAW sessions with musical playback behaviour.
Cloud Control
Position & Size
Control where grains are generated and how long they live.
Density & Motion
Shape the intensity, movement and flow of the granular cloud.
Randomization
Position Randomization and Size Randomization add organic instability and texture variation.
Stereo Spread
Create wider, more immersive spatial cloud movement.
Pitch Control
Transpose and push material into new tonal regions.
High-Pass Filter
Remove low-end weight and focus textures for cleaner mix placement.
Spectral & FX
Spectral Processing Mode
SP mode introduces spectral-inspired sound shaping and frequency-focused transformation.
Spectral Band Editor
Visual band editing for creative spectral sculpting, masking and sound transformation.
Shimmer Processing
Add atmospheric depth, lift and cinematic electronic space.
Workflow
Resizable Interface
A modern boutique-style UI designed for focused sound design sessions.
MIDI / MPE Support
Prepared for expressive performance workflows and future musical control concepts.
100+ Presets
100+ carefully designed parameter presets give you instant starting points across the Spectra Gran engine.
Built for everything from evolving ambient beds and cinematic scoring to game soundscapes, experimental textures and forward-thinking electronic music.
Explore your own sounds through granular motion and spectral shaping.
