12.RiverRun3K

Audio Ease's granular river, rebuilt bit for bit from the binary.

RiverRun3K is Audio Ease's Riverrun, rebuilt in Rust from the original machine code. It freezes a few seconds of sound and plays it back as thousands of tiny grains, each with its own envelope, pitch and place in the stereo field.

The original runs in an emulator next to the new engine, and their output matches bit for bit.

“Say one word. It comes back as weather.”

  • _ Audio Ease Riverrun, 2000
  • _ Granular synthesizer
  • _ Up to 2,000 grains a second · 23 pitch grids
  • _ Bit-identical to the original: 57 of 57 tests
