#Web Granular Synthesizer
The Granular synthesizer is a tool that helps us create complex and experimental sounds. It receives an audio file as input and chops it into bits and pieces. Those parts are called grains the process of manipulation of them is named Granular synthesis
To help the user shape the sound better I have added a series of effects to help the user in the sound creation process. In particular, the following are available :
- Reverb
- Ping-pong Delay
- Phaser
- Compressor I also implemented a drag and drop list as a bus to determine the order into which the effects will be applied.
The app follows a client-server architecture. Specifically the server-side has been built with Nodejs and Express and the front end with React.
The application follows the logic below
If you want to try it for yourself clone the repo and run
npm i; yarn
for each the api and frontend folders
after run
cd api; node ./bin/www
to start the server
and
cd frontend ; npm start to start react
