## State title

gtParticleCloud

## Type of sound

Asynchronous Particle Cloud. Animated filter frequencies, delay times, and time pointers. Descending pitch contour at attack of new note. Random pitch sweeps controlled by note intervals.

## Controllers

Expression1: “Softness”. Grain envelope modification, higher values give softer attack and faster decay. Grain Duration
Expression2: “Density”. Grain rate
Expression3: Modification of output routing (channel masks)
Expression4: Pan, Timepointer and Source mix animation

## Midi keyboard control

Note Number: Pitch transpose of source waves
Velocity: Amp
Interval: Random pitch sweep amount

## Suggested source waveform

Slot1: Any Sampled waveform, e.g. Cello.wav
Slot2: Any Sampled waveform, e.g. VibLineDistTone3.wav
Slot3: Any Sampled waveform, e.g. Planet2.wav
Slot4: Any Sampled waveform, e.g. PadWsSeq1_C4.wav
* Sounds with significant timbral variation over time will give more animated results.

Waveform sources/slots used: 1,2,3,4

## Mask tables

Channelmask:
A: Bandpass1, occsional Bandpass2. Length 10 grains.
B: Bandpass3, occsional Delay Left and Right. Length 16 grains
* Movement from Bandpass 1 to Bandpass 3 will go via Bandpass 2 and Lowpass

Frequency start mask:
A: No pitch sweep
B: Gaussian pitch distribution

## Pitch definition mode

Grain Transpose
Octave: 0
Source waveforms transposed so that note num 69 (middle A) should give a perceived fundamental of 440Hz
The original key stored with each source wave file may be octave displaced, in which case the same octaviation occurs on playback with this state.
