Fragment releases "Fragment 1.0" - Granular, Additive, Spectral Audio-Visual Synthesizer
FSynth/Fragment has released version 1.0 of the Fragment synthesizer, a free pixels-based granular, additive, spectral audiovisual synthesizer.
Fragment is a collaborative cross-platform audio-visual live coding environment with pixels based real-time image-synth approach to sound synthesis. The sound synthesis is powered by pixels data produced on the graphics card by live GLSL code.
Fragment is able to produce high-quality fast additive and granular synthesis simultaneously with re-synthesis support, it has many features making it easy to produce any kind of sounds or visuals and is aimed at artists and sound designers seeking a creative environment with few limitations to experiment with - a programmable noise-of-all-kinds software.
Fragment is also able to produce live visuals from videos, images, webcam, etc. import or algorithmically generated.
