XStream
Redefining Granular Synthesis for Modern Music Production
From Textures to Instruments to Immersive 3D Spaces
The Vision
A complete granular synthesis platform: texture creation, melodic instruments, immersive 3D spatial audio, and polyphonic effects – all in one plugin.
Foundation: Two Modes, Infinite Possibilities
Master the fundamentals of granular synthesis with two powerful approaches.
Single Mode
Turn Any Sound into Evolving Textures
- Grain-based time manipulation
- Independent pitch and time control
- Perfect for pads, drones, and atmospheres
- Real-time sample scrubbing
Multi Mode
Play Your Samples Like an Instrument
- Full polyphonic MIDI tracking
- Per-voice grain manipulation
- Create playable granular instruments
- Performance-ready with velocity sensitivity
3D Spatial Granular Synthesis
Take granular synthesis into the third dimension with immersive spatial audio.
Polyphonic 3D Spatializer
Each grain becomes a spatial object that can move through 3D space. Play chords where every note occupies its own position in the stereo field and beyond.
Binaural HRTF Processing
Powered by Steam Audio, experience true 3D positioning with head-related transfer functions for realistic spatial perception through headphones.
Integrated Spatial Control
New spatializer section in the interface for intuitive 2D positioning with per-voice control in Multi mode.
Motion & Automation
Animate grain positions in 3D space. Create swirling, orbiting, or random-walk grain clouds that evolve over time.
The Vision: Imagine playing a granular pad where each grain orbits around you in 3D space, or a polyphonic instrument where each note has its own spatial position. Phase 2 brings cinematic spatial audio to granular synthesis.
Polyphonic Effects Chain
Add character, aggression, and harmonic complexity with advanced polyphonic distortion.
Per-Voice Distortion
Independent distortion processing for each polyphonic voice. Create complex harmonies where each note has its own character and saturation.
Grain-Level Processing
Distort individual grains before they’re mixed. Achieve unique timbres impossible with traditional distortion.
Multiple Distortion Algorithms
From warm tube saturation to aggressive digital destruction. Shape your sound with a palette of distortion types.
Spatial Distortion Integration
Combine Phase 2’s spatial audio with Phase 3’s distortion. Create aggressive, spatially-distributed soundscapes.
The Result: XStream is now a complete sound design powerhouse. From pristine granular textures to spatially-distributed aggressive synthesis. One plugin, limitless sonic possibilities.
