Free Grain Mod Vst Sampler
This one took quite a bit of research, but I guess it’s finally ready for publishing (phew!). So, the latest edition of bpb Freeware Studio features a list of the best free granulator VST/AU plugins for Windows and Mac.
The list is split into two parts, where the extended list adds some less conventional granulizer plugins which I think are still pretty awesome. Also, please note that this article features only effects – I’ll be dealing with granular synthesizers soon.

Argotlunar 2 and KTGranulator are my two favorite free granulator effects. Both plugins allow lots of control over the grains and are incredibly fun to experiment with. However, Argotlunar has been dissapearing from the web from time to time, so here’s an alternative link in case it goes down again.
UPDATE: KTGranulator is now a commercial plugin called SaltyGrain. You can purchase it for $69 via SampleSumo. The free version is (sadly) not available anymore. Thanks to our readers bmovie and Ken Downey for the report!
grANALiser is a great free granulator by Morfiki. The version pictured below is called grANALiser 4 Kids. In the normal version, the robot is scratching the blonde girl’s back.

Smear is a somewhat different kind of granulator effect. It creates four randomly sized grains from the input signal, which are then further manipulated by the user. It’s also possible to feed the granulated signal back into the buffer. Neat!
Finally, if you’re still wondering what the hell these weird granulator things are, check out this nifty video introduction by How To Make Electronic Music:
And that’s all for today. What’s your favorite granulator VST? Any cool uses for a granulator plugin you’d like to share? Have I missed listing a great plugin? Leave it all in the comments section. Thanks for reading BPB!
Grain Scanner allows you to create experimental noises, glitches, alien textures and massive clouds of the environment. Its advanced sound engine turns any sample into a blank sheet for the otherworldly parts of the synthesizer.
The Grain Scanner, consisting of a 10-voice polyphonic granular synthesizer and re-synthesizer, cuts the samples into small fragments, then reorders and reproduces them in many ways. The result is a sound that lives somewhere between organic and synthetic.
Grain Scanner is designed to create intuitively changing textures that change in a complex and unpredictable way. Its advanced granular mechanism can simultaneously reproduce up to 1000 microscopic sections of a sample. A special modulation page contains four LFOs. Modulate each of the 10 voices individually or modulate global parameters using up to four modulation sources simultaneously. And its step-by-step sequencer and a separate effects panel will allow you to further improve the sound.
The pack includes over 100 presets for the game and a database with dozens of source sounds, ready for bending, twisting and transforming. You can also import your own samples to create a completely individual sound. Moreover, Grain Scanner was created taking into account Push and other keyboard controllers, so you can easily start creating melodies and harmonies with sounds that you developed yourself.
