GranSample - Granular Sampler
Musik
Kostenlos · In-App-Käufe · Entwickelt für iPad. Nicht für macOS überprüft.
A 16-pad sampler with a granular engine underneath. You tap pads, you sculpt textures, you sequence patterns. That's it — but "that's it" turns out to be a lot.
Free to try. GranSample Pro ($3.99, one-time) unlocks all 16 pads and WAV/M4A export. No subscription, no ads, no telemetry.
■ WHAT IT IS
A 4x4 touch grid that triggers samples. Each pad can run as a linear sample player OR feed a granular synth — you pick, per pad, any time. Build a beat, layer a drone, chop a vocal, turn a field recording into pulsing texture. Same instrument.
■ THE GRANULAR ENGINE
Eight knobs per pad. Position scans through the sample. Grain size + density set the texture from pebbles to glass. Pitch and pitch jitter bend tuning. Spray and stereo spread decorrelate the grains. Four window shapes (Hanning, Gaussian, Triangle, Trapezoid). Freeze locks the cursor for infinite sustain. Up to 128 grains per voice; the render path is lock-free and zero-allocation so it stays musical even when you push it.
■ CHROMATIC MODE
Pick any pad as the root and the grid turns into a chromatic keyboard. Every pad shows its note. Play melodies and chords with the same muscle memory you've built on the drum grid.
■ STEP SEQUENCER
Per-pad patterns at 16, 32, or 64 steps. Each step has its own velocity, drag-to-paint. Sequencer runs in sample-accurate audio-thread time, so the groove is tight and the swing is honest.
■ SAMPLE EDITOR
Full waveform view. Drag the grain region. Trim playback range. Preview LINEAR or GRAN at the top bar so you can A/B without committing. Dial pitch, loop, reverse, normalize loudness per pad.
■ ADSR ENVELOPE (PRO)
Per-pad attack/decay/sustain/release. Drag the live chart. Every pad gets its own shape.
■ EFFECTS
Per-pad AND master-bus. Reverb, Delay, Distortion, EQ, Compressor, Chorus, Filter. Up to 8 per chain, reorderable, all real-time tweakable.
■ RECORDING
60 seconds from the built-in mic straight into a pad. Full master bounces to WAV or M4A (Pro).
■ MIXER
Volume, pan, mute, solo per pad. A whole mixing board under your thumb.
■ PROJECTS & PRESETS
Save and recall entire sessions. Save granular parameter sets as presets. Pick up where you left off.
■ 16 FACTORY SAMPLES
Drums (Kick, Snare, Hi-Hat, Shaker). Melodic (Piano, Rhodes, Guitar, Synth Pad). Textures (Rain, Singing Bowl, Vinyl Crackle, more). Immediate, not generic.
■ FREE TIER
Pads 1–4 (Kick, Snare, Hi-Hat, Sub Bass). Full granular engine, effects, sequencer, mixer. No time limits, no watermark.

Hey, dev here. Been heads-down a while — here's what finally landed.
CHROMATIC MODE
Flip the Chromatic switch, pick a root pad, and the whole grid becomes a chromatic keyboard. Every pad shows its note. Honestly surprised it took me this long to add — it turns the app into a real playable instrument, not just a drum machine.
LONGER PATTERNS
You told me 16 steps wasn't enough. Heard. Loops now stretch to 32 or 64 steps, paginated into tabs so your screen doesn't get crushed.
PER-PAD ADSR (Pro)
Proper attack/decay/sustain/release with a live chart you can drag. Type exact ms if you want. Every pad gets its own shape.
SAMPLE EDITOR CLEAN-UP
New per-pad properties panel: tune, loop, reverse, normalize loudness, trim playback range on an interactive waveform. Plus a LINEAR/GRAN toggle at the top — A/B both modes without committing.
THE SILENT-MUTE BUG IS DEAD
This one haunted me for months. Run the step sequencer with 2+ granular pads on, and eventually iOS's audio safety classifier would mute the speaker — you'd have to kill the app to get sound back. Spent a real amount of time log-diving. Turned out the main culprit was Debug-build overhead (release builds mostly didn't hit it), but I retuned the grain scheduler, spawn cap, sub-voice pool, and engine-recovery paths anyway so it's definitively gone in both builds now. If you ever emailed me "it randomly goes silent" — that report turned into this fix. Thank you.
Also fixed a click when retriggering melodic samples, and sequencer stop now properly fades out granular tails instead of letting them hang.

AUv3 plugin. Literally every week someone asks. I'm on it. No ETA yet but I'll get there.
Keep the emails coming. They work.
