Let’s split it up A recent addition to my Eurorack Modular system is the “Clouds” module from Mutable Instruments. Clouds is a “Graintable” synthesizer / sampler. It samples audio from the input, and splits it into atoms. These atoms can be re-arranged, pitched, re-positioned, resized etc, and in between those settings lies an interesting world of […]
