Grain mixing for granular synthesis

Abstract

A method for reproducing audio corresponding to an audio recording divided into a plurality of grains. The method includes selecting from the plurality of grains i) a first grain associated with a first position in a descriptor space and ii) a second grain associated with a second position in the descriptor space. The method also includes selecting a first set of one or more mixing window coefficients based on the first position, selecting a second set of one or more mixing window coefficients based on the second position, and obtaining a final mixing window coefficient using the first and second sets of mixing window coefficients. The method further includes producing blended samples by blending at least a portion of the first grain with at least a portion of the second grain, using the final mixing window coefficient.
