ESK - Tasty Chips GR 1 Synth Sounds 2
Published on Aug 15, 2018 Metunar
"ESK - Tasty Chips GR-1 Synth Sounds 2
Tasty Chips Electronics GR-1 Granular Synthesizer Demo of my presets/patches/performance.
You can get this sounds 'MetunarSynthSounds' on the Tasty Chips website as download.
https://www.tastychips.nl/?page_id=2233
Audio is directly recorded from the GR-1 without external effects.
On all sounds the "Resample Anti-aliasing" is deactivated to get a more row digital sound.
The modulation deep of the 2 LFOs is normally set on zero. I use them like a kind of modulationwheels for extra modulation.
With the modulationwheel you can open the filter on many patches.
On the last sound i play with the internal delay which is good for looping effects.

Tasty Chips ECR+ Eurorack Convolver Demonstration
video upload by Tasty Chips
"A demonstration of the Tasty Chips Electronics eurorack module:
The ECR+ Eurorack Convolver.
Convolution works with Impulse Responses, which can be added to the ECR+ via USB. This means it is not limited to just reverberation IR's. IR's could also be something like delays, filterbanks, resonators and even recordings directly into the module itself. This versatile device is a great addition to any Eurorack setup and sparks a ton of creativity.
Chapters:
0:00 Intro
0:16 Micrograins with Resonator IR's
2:45 Guitar loop with Large Hall IR's
4:40 Drum loop with various SFX IR's
6:05 Transitional effects with ECR+
6:58 Jungle loop with SFX IR's
7:59 Arpeggio's with Large Ambience IR's
10:13 Arpeggio's with Delay IR's"

New GR-1 Firmware 2.0 Tutorial & 2019 Teaser
Tasty Chips GR-1 Teaser 2019 Published on Mar 19, 2019 Tasty Chips
"A new product teaser for our GR-1 granular synthesizer, featuring some lovely close-up shots."
Published on Mar 19, 2019 Tasty Chips
"Showcases some of the new firmware 2.0 features in detail, along with some of the older, yet deeper functions.
Some of our customers requested a tutorial video with a voice-over in a calm pace. So, here it is, along with some good looking close-up shots!
Covered are: firmware update, multi-timbrality, sample tuning, audition mode, recording aux lfo waveforms, scan loop and loop modes, and keyboard split basics."
via Tasty Chips
"The last 2 months we’ve been busy with a large rewrite of the GR-1 firmware. The new version 2.0 makes it multitimbral, and adds many new features and improvements. The new engine allows you to stack up to four patches, assign patches to MIDI channels and/or to play mode, record audio to one patch in real-time and play chords and solos with the others.
Get the upgrade, and the new manual, from our GR-1 downloads page. Credits and thanks to the beta testers who worked to quickly track down the bugs!
In a few weeks we’ll start a new video campaign on Youtube. Of course we’ll cover all the new features.
The GRC-1 MIDI controller is still in heavy development, and we hope to have the first model ready in autumn. As said before, the GRC-1 will offer hands-on controls for everything to do with multitimbral and more. The GR-1 at this moment only offers multitimbral controls via GUI menu’s and secondary button functions.
Production: at one point production was going so well we were almost 2 weeks ahead of schedule. Then problems with component stock and a mistake with PCB assembly hit us.. and now we’re delayed a week again. In any case, you can keep track of the progress in our GR-1 production schedule. We try to update it weekly."

TASTY CHIPS GR-1 - Scratching the Surface
Part 1 (ambient) video upload by Megan Leber
"This is the first part of a little series I'll record with the Tasty Chips Electronics GR-1. I loooove granular synthesis and this machine is a beast! I'm just scratching the surface here, so I'll definitely record some more videos in the future where I'll be using more complex settings (and the modular of course!). Enjooooy!"
TASTY CHIPS GR-1 - Scratching the surface - Part 2 (techno)
"The long awaited part 2! Jamming with the Tasty Chips GR-1 (not MIDI synced) and playing with the LFO's. Later I recorded an improvised piece with my Roland TR-8S to give it some context. Enjoy!"

Tasty Chips GR-1 Granular Synthesizer
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The Tasty Chips GR-1 offers perhaps the first truly intuitive, approachable interface for granular synthesis in hardware format. With dedicated controls for all common granular synthesis parameters and a crisp display with clever and clear visual feedback, the GR-1 makes in-depth granular synthesis easy.
Offering 16 voices of polyphony with a maximum of 128 grains per voice, the GR-1 is equally at home in context as a source of sonorous ambience, glitched-out gestural textures, cinematic sound design, and far more. Latching "play" buttons for four independent voices as well as MIDI input offer multiple modes of interaction, while built-in LFOs and control voltage inputs allow extensive automation of internal parameters. Dedicated controls for grain position, density, size, pitch, scan rate, window shape, position randomization, and panning randomization make deep granular manipulation easily accessible. A 7" display makes the implications of all controls visible, making the otherwise obtuse methods of granular synthesis far more obvious than any previous hardware.
It seems strange to say that granular synthesis can be intuitive—but Tasty Chips Electronics has made it possible. The GR-1 might be the best hardware granular synthesizer to date."

Ambient jam with the Dreadbox Nymphes, Tasty Chips GR-1, Strymon NightSky, and Empress Reverb
video upload by Jay Hosking
"A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.
Dreadbox was kind enough to send along the Nymphes a little early to me, and I couldn't have been more excited. While I have the Abyss, I've been hoping for a new Dreadbox polysynth that's more widely available for a long time.
And the Nymphes doesn't disappoint. It's unbelievably small but with a super sturdy build and great fader throw lengths. It has a lot of secondary functions but it's dead easy to navigate, and still feels more hands-on than the Dreadbox Typhon (another great small synth). And most importantly of all, it has a beautiful sound with tons of character and some great particular nooks and crannies in its timbres. A warm analog polysynth the size of a paperback book? I love it.
I've also got lots to say on the Tasty Chips GR-1, but I'm planning to do a video with it in the near future, so more then. Suffice it to say for now that I love it and that it's a perfect companion for ambient work.
Dreadbox Nymphes through Strymon NightSky — Main synth
Tasty Chips GR-1 through Empress Reverb — Ambient granular goodness
Arturia Keystep — MIDI controller for the Nymphes
Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master."

Tasty Chips Electronics - ECR+
video upload by SchneidersLaden
"This video is a simple presentation of some of the sounds we came across while exploring the ECR+ by Tasty Chips Electronics. There is definitely much more to discover and we look forward to hearing your creations with the ECR+. We have one in our showroom, if you're in town, stop by and check it out.
Tasty Chips have been known for their GR-1 Granular Sampler for years. With their first Eurorack product they have brought something new to the table. Probably the first Stereo Convolution Reverb for Eurorack - the ECR+.
The module is more than just a plain reverb effect. One of the most distinctive features is the ability to load two impulse responses at once, between which you can then crossfade with a knob or by CV. The position of the impulse response, the stereo width and a few other parameters can also be controlled by CV to create even more interesting effects. This, plus the fact that you can load your own impulse responses into the module and even record on it, makes the ECR+ a great tool for sound design and unheard sounds."

Ambient jam with the Tasty Chips GR-1, Sequential Take 5, and Strymon NightSky
video upload by Jay Hosking
"Please support my work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/jayhosking
A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.
There are few options for granular synthesis in the hardware world. The Tasty Chips GR-1 has the right level of control, via its knobs and faders, and visual feedback, via its generous screen, to make granular synthesis fast, fun, and hands-on. Plus it's got 11-voice polyphony, four different timbres to play all at once, a dedicated filter on each timbre, and some effects for in a pinch. Not only can you create granular synth sounds, but you can also play looped "clouds" of the sample, or just straight sample playback at different rates, pitches, and directions. In short, the GR-1 overcomes all my issues with using software granular on (for example) my iPad, and makes the process just as fun as using subtractive synthesis.
Speaking of subtractive synths, the Take 5 continues to be a gem. Considering it's an introductory synth in the Sequential line-up, it is an amazing sounding synth with an excellent design, a nice keybed, and useable effects. It's rare to find a polysynth with a strong low end, but the Take 5 really can fill out the spectrum. I love it.
This track is the result of my Patreon's holiday collaboration, in which we all sent samples to a recipient, and received samples from a "secret syntha", and made songs from these samples. It culminated in a listening party on New Year's Eve and was a ton of fun. Thanks so much to Som Shankhar (pad sample) and jean-louis proust (drum sample) for the inspiration and the loops here!

A Path Opens in the Bloom | Tasty Chips GR-1, Oto Bam, Marantz Cassette
Published on Jan 15, 2020 r beny
"Hello and Happy New Year.
Lately I've been getting into using granular sampling/synthesis to re-contextualize various sound sources. The human voice has been my favorite sound source of late. The Tasty Chips GR-1 is perfect for this, not just for its granular capabilities, but also because of its 11-voice polyphony/4-part multi-timbrality. I initially bought it on a whim, just because it was available, but it has become an important part of my studio for this type of stuff.
Here I have a recording of my own voice (trying to hold a C, I cannot sing) loaded into GR-1. I'm playing it back polyphonically via the Keystep through the Squarp Hermod. I use the Hermod essentially as a MIDI looper (you can see the initial loop recording queued up in the beginning of the video). GR-1 is running through a Marantz PMD-221 with the output set to monitor the tape just after it's been recorded to in real-time. I'm using a cassette loop for extra sound degradation. The Marantz is running through the OTO Bam for some extra stereo goodness/light to heavy reverberation.
Just a simple little piece for proof of concept.
As always, thank you for listening."

Tasty Chips GR-1 as an FX unit - Live sampling and playback
Published on Sep 25, 2017 Tasty Chips
"Quick video that demonstrates the GR-1's new live sampling capabilities. Input sound is streamed from a laptop and input via a USB soundcard (the small black on the back). All granular synthesis options are in effect, and allow stuff like scratching, time stretch, comb filtering, harmonizing (using the play buttons and sliders).
Music by Holon (Mark Rydyger) https://soundcloud.com/mark-r-3. Track "Awake To A New Reality". Many thanks!
Sorry about the low recording quality. This was all just grabbed quickly from the ipad mic. Nothing better at hand right now!"

#Jamuary2022 | Day 24 | Tasty Chips GR-1
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"I'm taking the opportunity during Jamuary2022 to use more exotic stuff you may not see on the regular modular videos. Today it's time to fool around with the Tasty Chips GR-1 granular synthesizer. It's usually in a closet next to the ARP2600, Lyra-8 and Pulsar-23 because I don't have space in my homestudio but hopefully this will change this year when the lab gets a real studio. Wow, I made 24 days - and again I have no idea what to do tomorrow."

Ambient jam with Dreadbox Nymphes, Tasty Chips GR-1, Walrus Slöer, Meris LVX
video upload by Jay Hosking
"Please support my work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/jayhosking
A live, semi-improvised synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware.
In my previous video, I tried the Walrus Slöer reverb pedal with a few fun synths. During that session, I stumbled into a chord progression on the Nymphes that sounded really lovely with the Slöer, and this track was born from it.
I knew it needed some accompaniment that matched the feeling, so I brought out the GR-1, my favourite granular hardware. With its four-layer timbrality, I could both create textures, and also use a timbre to double the Nymphes for some building/progression. I'm really happy with how hardware explorations can quickly lead to finished songs, and this is no exception.
Dreadbox Nymphes into Walrus Slöer - Pad
Tasty Chips GR-1 into Meris LVX - Four granular synth sounds
Arturia Keystep 37 - MIDI controller
Kenton MIDI Thru (not seen) - MIDI Thru
Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.
Thanks for listening.
