Coming straight from the Steinberg sound lab, Padshop is a state-of-the-art granular synthesizer that provides out-of-this-world atmospheres and far-out effects - and a user interface that's a breeze to work with.

Granular synthesis is one of the most fascinating fields of experimental sound design, but the conversions for programming sounds based on granular synthesis algorithms have always been too complex for every-day sound design or too shallow for serious in-depth sound manipulation. With Padshop, Steinberg offers a granular synthesizer that raises the standard in terms of handling, flexibility, musicality and sound.

Top features:

Advanced granular synthesis engine with 2 independent layers and individual oscillator, edit and FX sections
Up to 8 grain streams per oscillator for impressively rich and spacious structures
Intuitive user interface for effective usability and direct accessibility
More than 400 presets dedicated to atmospheric pads and evolving textures
SoftGrain Wave ROM with hundreds of samples for custom presets

Mac OS X Version 10.6/10.7
