Software Description

Sound Grain is a graphical interface where users can draw and edit trajectories to control granular sound synthesis modules.

Sound Grain is written with Python and uses Csound as its audio engine. Csound 5 must be installed on the system to allow Sound Grain to run.

Soundgrain audio engine

Hi,

As of version 3, Soundgrain no more uses Csound as its audio engine but pyo, a dsp python module I created especially to have a complete audio engine running under python.
