Steinberg Padshop 2

Granular and Spectral Synthesizer

Layer two different sounds in parallel

You can layer and blend two different sounds. And the best thing is that each of these sounds can be designed with dedicated filters, LFOs, effects and arpeggios... using the spectral and/or granular oscillator. For example, you can enrich your sounds by doubling them or combining a pad with arpeggio.

Work with your own samples

Import your own samples or choose one of more than 570 exclusively recorded boutique samples to inspire your imagination... and then transform it into something completely new.

Modulate your sound

The Mod Matrix is where you can get creative in terms of sound design and control, with its 16 freely assignable modulation rows. Connect any of the 39 sources with one of the 63 destinations to explore almost infinite possibilities.

The new sound source

When you change the oscillator from granular to spectral, the display color will change from red to green. This will reveal a new set of parameters; for example, purity and inharmonicity that can manipulate sounds in a pure, very harmonic style or in a much more raw and gritty manner.
