I'll be damned if I'm not going to use it...
So I've been playing around with this free granular tool called Amber-X. It is pretty cool, especially for being free.
I made the mistake of loading in a 36 MB file and asking it to generate a 60 second clip with maximal morphing grains.
That was at 11:15 this morning. It is 4:30 now.
Progress complete: 90%. Each 10% takes longer than the last.
It was my fault, really, for cramming such a big file into it. But now I HAVE to know what it sounds like. And I shall.
Tomorrow morning...
