Fluss - Granular Playground for Positive User Reviews

Lots of fun noiseIntuitive controls, fun to play around with, and lots of unique sounds. Really happy with it so far..Version: 1.0.1

What’s All The Fluss About?If you’re into weird, interesting, surprising, beautiful, evolving noises in limitless flavours (which you probably are, if you’re dabbling in granular synthesis), this should be right up your street. I honestly spent about 3 hours after installing, absolutely hypnotised by 3 instances in AUM, just with it’s first 3 presets, tweaking and playing with the amazing physics based modulators. Set friction to zero, give ‘em a little flick, and get lost in time, space and sound. The option to also use as a live effect or a recorder is the cherry. An absolute gem, utterly joyful in my opinion. I love it 🍻.Version: 1.0.1

Another Great 😊 BramSuper fun makes a granular not so daunting. To the guy who reviewed saying you can’t sample just load it into a effects slot in AUM if that’s your choice like me. It can sample any auv3 app if loaded into effects and make sure to choose fluss recorder au. That’s all I got for now. Well worth the price imho ! Keep on keepin on guys!.Version: 1.0.1

Best music app I’ve ever usedI recently experienced a serious injury, and I have been unable to play my normal instruments. This app has brought back the joy of making music for me. Thank you for making something so beautiful and brilliant!.Version: 1.0.2

It could be perfect, but not quite there yetFantastic fun music app - such an idea generator! My biggest complaint is twofold: 1. You can’t SAMPLE.. yet this is supposed to be a granular sampler. Having to load wav files from your iOS File explorer is a pain and should be an option. Please add a “sample” button that activates the microphone on your iOS device (see Andrew Huang’s “Flip” for reference). 2. There needs to be preset browser arrows to page through your presets without having to open the pop-up browser window. Fix those two glaring issues, and you’ll have a 5-star review. Even if you don’t make a proper desktop version for your DAW..Version: 1.0.1

Instabuy! Ambient madness.First impression, this is a lot of fun and a bit out of control. In a good way. Thank you, Bram and Herr Hainbach for another lovely tool for the toolbox. Edit: some of these presets are worth the app price alone..Version: 1.0

Excellent!A really exciting and accessible app. I have been look for something just like Fluss for ages. Brilliant for creating or generating evolving soundscapes whilst benefiting from the rich waveform possibilities of sampling. I love it!.Version: 1.1

Interesting. First day v1.0.1Only a few hours in. I’m sure I’ll learn more about how to use the synth with experimentation. But some things I’d like: more control. A limit on the panning, filter & scan speed, similar to the way “faders” can be limited. I would also love a way to draw in a line & separate the orbs in the octave/pitch XY pad, having one oscillator “locked” in a row or column (or diagonally), free from interruption with the movement of the other 2. Lastly a way to assign “play heads” that can be triggered by an external controller (I started using the .wav file like a drum pad by tapping different locations, if that makes any sense) Thanks for a very creative experience..Version: 1.0.1

Brilliant AFThe sound manipulation possibilities and the app's ease of use are simply unique. You could get lost in a short sample for an hour and hear it as a new sound with every parameter change. Brains and ambiance/musicality in action!.Version: 1.0.1

So coolSimple interface, yet endless sound possibilities - with instant randomization of settings by just giving the iPhone a little shake. The magic of granular synthesis easily accessible for musicians of all experience levels..Version: 1.0.1

Beautiful app, I wish I could use it in my DAWI love playing around with this amazing app. The sounds they give you to use are great. That said, I wish I could incorporate this easily into my Logic workflow (yea, I know there are ways but it all seems quite complicated to be honest). Any chance we could get a plugin version of this?.Version: 1.1

Very Impressive (after exploring)Initially I was not impressed by this. Usually I am underwhelmed, as an iphone developer, by gimmicky new ways to slide your fingers across the “no-so-precise” touchscreen of apples generalized 40pxl radius to work with. This usually makes it so apps like this are good in theory or on paper but not so great in experience. No so with Fluss. I was going about my initial use of this all wrong, trying to maintain consistent control instead of letting go. This tool will help you let the process just flow or .. fluss. Good Job from Bram and bach with this one..Version: 1.2

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨Very awesome app can you Please add recording ability from the internal microphone.Version: 1.3

A very intuitive granularFluss works, at least for me, because like so much of Hainbach’s corpus, it’s grounded in tactile concepts: rebounding particles, tape loops, slow, slow, SLOW time. If that’s what you’re after, it’s a great tool for creating evolving spatial and temporal textures. That said, I can’t give it five stars because of a GLARING (to me anyway) flaw: it stops playing audio if you put it in the background. This means I can’t use an external plugin (like Lines or Filterjam, or BlindEQ) along with it, and that’s exactly what I want to do with it. That said, if you aren’t looking to multitask with it on the ipad, it’s a great means to that glitchy but also soft focus sound..Version: 1.3

It’s greatYes, sounds wonderful.Version: 1.2

ExcellentInfinite soundscape possibilities. If you like experimental granular sonics, then this app is for you. It’s perfect for the kind of stuff I like to mess with—gritty ambient rolling soundscapes with plenty of modulation. The modulation possibilities with Fluss are nearly infinite and bring new dimensions to my library of samples. One of the best music making apps of the year!.Version: 1.0.1

Brilliant!This the most creative and unique iOS music production app to come out in a while! Though there’s nothing like it, it’s very easy to get your head around. It works equally well as an FX processor with live audio as a sound generation source from sample manipulation. Thanks Hainbach and Bram Bos …..this is brilliant!.Version: 1.0.1

It’s Bram Bos…… instabuy. And Hainbach? Instabuy and write a good review..Version: 1.0.1

Very interactive granular playgroundReally like the playability of this and the simple user interface. Can easily get some unique soundscapes. It’s also very relaxing to play with! One issue I have is since you changed the colours, the cyan play head is now the same colour as the waveform, and when the wave you load has the same height (compressed, normalised audio) as the play head it is difficult to spot where it is. I was thinking it would might be good to have snapshots that you can switch between so you can create different chords in the pitch section..Version: 1.0.2

Limitless sonic possibilitiesThis is the latest app from Bram Bos and Hainbach, whose previous release Gauss was a very interesting piece of work. This time they've released a granular synthesiser and it's wonderful! I've spent several hours diving in and messing around, manipulating sounds with the controls within the app, and it works as a live processor too, a little bit like a very powerful delay. Please ignore the one star review from someone called MrGroozy. He's completely misunderstood the app, hasn't really tried it out, and totally doesn't understand the nature of granular synthesis. Yes, there are loads of built-in presets that you can play with, but you can record or import literally any sounds - some muesli being poured into a bowl, the wind in the trees, an elephant doing a plop, whatever you like, and the app will create something new from it that no one on the planet has ever heard. Would have been five stars for sure but the user manual is really disappointing. It's just one page long. It could have been SO much more and could have given a lot more insights into how to get the best out of the app. As it stands, it really only skims the surface and tells you what each button/control does. Anyway, it's a great piece of work and Fluss itself is absolutely brilliant. A must-buy for sure! You can lose yourself for hours, days even, in the limitless sonic possibilities that it offers..Version: 1.1

DifferentThis is a very different and innovative granular synthesis app I’ve been playing around with it for a few hours and feel I’ve barely scratched the surface.Version: 1.0.1

OK, the excitement’s explained - ‘flick-ochet’ invented!I’ve used this for 7 minutes. So I am just giving it five stars right away to recognise a genuine other-level of touch interface use that’s been implemented here. It’s not just tap, double-tap, but also flick-and-ricochet - a ‘flickochet’ control? Yes, I claim the credit for coining this term I think. Think of your favourite echo or delay or tremolo unit, but able to take your sliding of the control to make various settings, not a ‘static’ thing. In other words, you shove the delay time say, hard across the screen, and it ricochets around, constantly adjusting that setting in real time. It’s like that ping-pong game of old, and the shove and ricochet you induced, slowly decays away after you let go. So the control WILL sit still, if your last touch was static, held for a split second in that position - but you can swipe quickly and the ping-ponging begins, a dynamic ricochet that slowly like a rubber ball bouncing, decays in its movement. So, after just seven minutes, I get the basic idea. I was not sure how this needed 405Mb, after all many delays are like, 15Mb or so. This clever shove-and-ricochet behaviour of the control sliders and joysticks is what all the fuss is about and why it takes nearly half a Gb (I mean, it’s a cross-hair and a circle dead centre of it, but this is what it would physically be in hardware). It pretty much obeys the laws of physics, the bouncing-around controls thing. It decays like you’d expect, and probably there’s a subtle setting that prolongs that decay - there’s certainly a ‘friction’ adjustment for something, which in engineering might be termed ‘damping level’ that you can apply. A genuine innovation, refinement and moving-forward of touch interface implementation. What a great thing - wouldn’t like to try it with a mouse, usable, but effort compared to the iPad and iPhone touch-screens. Go Bram Bos and Hainbach, a brilliant piece of sonic jiggery-pokery!.Version: 1.0.2
