Pastfabric II is also included in the Granular Suite bundle

Background

Pastfabric II is the successor to Puremagnetik's popular micro-splicing plugin. This granular reverb processor works in real time, shaping any sound you feed into its buffer. Influenced by microsound techniques and experimental tape splicing, Pastfabric II blends elements from both the analog and digital worlds, adding everything from nostalgic glitches to shimmering ambient textures to your audio.

Micro-splicing 

Pastfabric records incoming audio in real-time to a 10s buffer, then processes it with a granulator and an algorithmic reverb. The Past control sets the scanning length. It then pulls out granulated splices from the memory. Motion controls the randomization of the splicer as it pulls new content out. With Duration and Length, each splice can undergo chopping, glitching or sustaining into blurred ambience. 

Effects and Fabric

Splices can be routed through an expressive selection of effects. Haze controls an algorithmic reverb that diffuses the spatial source of the slices. Fabric adds an improved analog "aging" effects to the splices, making them wow, flutter and saturate.

Between micro-memory splicing and effects, Pastfabric II can turn a very simple sound input into complex repeating patterns, modulating, beautiful ambiences and much more.
