Modular session 2026-10-09 live take 150bpm broken beats

video upload by Renku Corporation

"Spent the whole weekend going deep on this one. Lots of stuff going on, this was the 3rd take. Filled up almost all the mutes! The basics of the patch is Zaps into Panharmonium, split from there, and the Buck Modular Drumf**k into QPAS into Rings, split from there. Numeric Repetitor does the Zaps, drums are Social Entropy Engine mostly, and many many others got in on this one. The new WMD Skorpion is used on the Irukandji glitch drum used as a bass, after running through a TTA Z2040 and post-wave-folder is the Morpheus filter. The Tasty Chips ECR1+ is doing a big very thing with convolution. Beads is blurring away, and Clouds is in but you might not know it. Audio Damage Boomtshack is the snare through Godsbox Lollipop compressor with Jomox Modbase as the kick through the Jellysquasher. Main hat is Plonk, Polaris filter, 4ms DLD. The Synthesis Tech E520 processor runs a spectral delay on one path of the Plonk/pan."

GR-Mega does not need a keyboard

"Here we go again for a broader exploration of the GR-Mega but still on it's own, no keyboard needed to make interesting stuff with this thing and that's what I love about it!

Drum mangling and clouds of analog bleeps on the menu."

Taking a stand

video upload by Memetune Studio

"I've been setting up a little workspace using some really cool granular synths (Tasty Chips GS1 and Beetlecrab Tempera) and I've discovered these crazy VESA stands that you can get pretty cheap (£20). They are really designed for computer monitors and things, but they work great with desktop synths too, especially if you don't have a lot of desk space like me at the mo

I made the music in this video clip just now on the new granulars - yes!"

"Hi folks!

I like t invite you to a raw live performance created entirely on the ‪@TastyChips‬ #grmega granular workstation.

Direct stereo recording with no audio post-processing, mastering, or editing.
Slow-moving textures, dusty rhythms, ambient fragments, and rough cinematic atmosphere.

Recorded live in one take.

Best sound with headphones🖖👽"

GR-2 vs. GR-1 - Tasty Chips granular synth - Superbooth 2026

video upload by Let's Play Synths

"I've been using the GR-1 for a couple of years now and it has its pain points … like no audio in, an (still) obscure and puzzling file system and effects buried in endless menu scrolling. Now the GR-2 does a lot of this better. Which is why we basically went through a very in-depth GR-2 vs. GR-1 comparison. You can pre-order the GR-2 now from the fully funded campaign on https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/... for 849€ / $999, it will ship in September/October."

Tasty Chips GR-2 Incoming

via Tasty Chips:

"There was the GR-1, then there was the bigger brother to extend the family, the GR-MEGA, and now there’s the GR-2.

The GR-2 is the direct successor of the GR-1. Similar size, similar price, but with a large touch screen, and many of the GR-MEGA’s abilities. As loyal readers of our mailing list, you are the first to know. We offer a limited amount of early bird units at 100 euro discount. We chose Kickstarter to reach a large audience and gauge interest, and you guys are the first the learn about it.

Visit us at Superbooth this weekend for a GR-2 demo, and of course you can also play around with all our other synths and effects.

For GR-MEGA owners: the GR-2 is like a little brother of the GR-MEGA. Both can run the same patches, and have largely the same abilities. The GR-2 has somewhat lower polyphony, lacks the amount of function-specific knobs and buttons, and lacks luxury interfaces like HDMI and balanced audio. The GR-2 firmware has the same “root” as the GR-MEGA’s. This means the GR-2 hitches a piggyback ride on the mature GR-MEGA for a great start.. and after a while the GR-MEGA will benefit from large amounts of sold GR-2’s: more user feedback, leading to more features, higher quality, and a large patch library.

If you want the best granular synthesizer and sound design tool out there, please support us.. and yourself. 🙂 Thank you! 🙏"

Additional details via Kickstarter.

The GR-2 is a granular synth, transformative sampler, and a portable sound design tool. It's ideally suited to stand-alone use. It can drone, you can use the touchscreen to play it like a live instrument. Attach MIDI gear or computer to use it like a traditional synth. Samples Samples want to be heard, but also seen, touched, and transformed. That's what the GR-2 delivers. Triggers, and manipulation are immediate. There's no setup, and there's visual feedback for everything.

Easy to use

The 7" touch screen, and high contrast GUI make life easy. There are spatially associated encoders along the the edges of the display. The most important settings are always visible, and they're big.

The most important settings are available from Quick Access (QA) menu buttons at the top. Using a touch gesture you can make them full screen. Deeper menus are accessible via the menu button. And rest assured, you're never more than 1 level deep + all GUI widgets are big and high contrast.

Power

The GR-2 is compact, no more than 25x19x7 cm, but it's powerful. While the touchscreen plays a large role, the knobs and fader are essential to the tactile, immediate, and precise nature of this synth.

Transformation is key. Load or record a sample, then mangle it through one of the many engines and effects. Long field recordings, transients, tonal material, the GR-2 eats them all. Make them unrecognizable, emphasize their inherent character, or add your own accents. Make them scatter in the granular engine, add subtle stutters, let it smoothly sustain forever, or make it whistle and bubble in the spectral engine. Using the many knobs and up-front menus, this quickly becomes like a second nature.

Polyphonic, multi-timbral, multi-engine, MPE capable, a dozen high quality effects, macros, and a deep polyphonic modulation matrix with over 120 destinations and 24 sources. Of course touch X,Y are mod sources. Our granular engine is the best you'll find in any hardware synth. A claim we dare make with ease. You can leverage the power of a touch screen, and play multiple notes and chords, along with gestural modulation accross 4 timbres. You can even record and transform touch gestures for modulation."
