Abstract

Sinteza zvuka kreativni je proces stvaranja odnosno produkcije zvuka. Postoje analogne i digitalne sinteze, od kojih su najraširenije FM, aditivna, subtraktivna, wavetable, S&S, fizičko modeliranje i ponavljanje uzoraka. Granularna sinteza danas je čisto digitalna sinteza koja obrađuje ili gradi zvuk malim zvučnim segmentima koji se nazivaju granule zvuka. Istaknuti producenti koji su najviše doprinijeli razvoju elektroničke glazbe granularnom sintezom su Iannis Xenakis i Curtis Roads. Zbog svoje složenosti, granularna sinteza rijetko je kada sklopovski implementirana, pa se koristi isključivo plug-inovima na programskoj podršci digitalne audio radne stanice. U programu Ableton Live granularna sinteza vrlo je intuitivno implementirana besplatnim plug-inom Argotlunar. Mijenjani parametri u primjerima su ovojnica granule, duljina granule, razmak između granula, frekvencijski sadržaj granule i broj granula u nekom periodu.

Abstract (english)

Sound synthesis is a creative process of creating or producing sound. There are analogue and digital syntheses, and the most widespread are FM, additive, subtractive, wavetable, S&S, physical modeling and sample replay. Today, granular synthesis is a purely digital synthesis that processes or builds sound from small audio segments called sound grains. The prominent producers who contributed the most to the development of electronic music with granular synthesis are Iannis Xenakis and Curtis Roads. Because of its complexity, granular synthesis is rarely implemented in hardware, and is used exclusively by plug-ins in the digital audio workstation softwares. In the Ableton Live, a software for DAW, granular synthesis is intuitively implemented with a free plug-in called Argotlunar. The varied parameters in the examples are grain envelope, grain length, spacing between grains, grain frequency content and number of grains in the default period of time.
