Grainulator is made by Andy Smith under the Plastic Factory label.

Open-source components

Grainulator stands on the shoulders of several open-source projects:

• iPlug2 — the cross-format plug-in framework. VST3, AudioUnit, AAX, AUv3, and standalone targets all share a single C++ codebase through iPlug2.
• Visage — the GPU-backed graphics and UI library used for every control, panel, and visualization in the editor.
• CloudSeed — a classic algorithmic reverb by Valdemar Erlingsson, adapted as one of Grainulator's reverb modes.
• Mutable Instruments Rings — the physical-modelling resonator at the heart of the SYNTH tab's Resonator section is a port of the Rings Eurorack module's DSP by Émilie Gillet.
• Signalsmith Audio — basics and reverb building blocks used in one of the multi-mode reverb algorithms.

Documentation

This documentation is built with:

• MkDocs Material — the site generator, theme, and search.
• mkdocs-with-pdf and WeasyPrint — the PDF renderer that produces the Desktop Edition and iPad Edition PDFs.
• Vercel — the hosting platform serving docs.plasticfactory.com.
• GitHub Actions — the continuous-integration pipeline that builds and deploys the site on every push to main.

Thanks

To the beta testers who caught real bugs and to everyone who asked for features that turned out to be better than the ones on the original roadmap. The rhythmic mod sources, the compressor's parallel mix, and the multi-mode reverb all came out of user requests.
