Hi Carlos,

As I said in my earlier mail that even a 4-grain system would cost a
fortune. On the other hand, a module that includes a DSP programmed to do
granular synthesis would also cost a lot, given that it will have to be a
powerful DSP to handle a high number of grains. It would also have to
include features like slew, filter, pitch shifting, amp, panning, etc, as
you would not be able to process grains separately with modules.
