Stream - A Time-Based Linear Granulator

US ILIO releases plug-in in a new partnership with Delta Sound Labs 26/11/19

ILIO has announced their newest partnership with US-based Delta Sound Labs and the release of Stream, described as a time-based linear granulator for sound design, intricate delays, and live performance. Here’s the story in their own words…

Delta Sound Labs is an audio technology company made up of passionate artists and engineers focused on bridging analog and digital domains to create new FX and instruments for the music, film, and gaming industries. Having specialized in designing Eurorack Modules for quite some time, Delta Sound Labs has brought their talents into the software world with Stream.

Granular synthesis has been known to take one of two approaches: frequency based or linear (time-based). Contrary to most granular audio effects on the market, Stream is linear or time-based, and provides new ways to granulize and manipulate samples and live audio sources.

Stream is a highly creative audio effect and boasts extremely low latency making it ideal for live performance. A few key features of Stream include:

Tempo Sync: Synchronize the grains with the tempo of your host

Low latency: Ideal for live performance

Capture: Capture an audio excerpt and manipulate the audio

Three Envelopes: Triangle, Q-able Gaussian, and Noise

Up to 16 granular voices

Time stretching/scrubbing

MIDI buffer sequencing and re-pitching
