01Overview

Particle Pie is built around two independent processing engines that can run solo or be blended together. The spectral glitcher reshapes the timbre and pitch character of a sound, while the granular engine breaks it into streams of particles that can create repeating glitch delays and atmospheric clouds. Dedicated Dry and Wet controls for each engine let you set how much of each process sits against the original signal. The plugin is aimed at producers who want to move beyond standard effects and shape sources into unpredictable, textured results.

Spectral Glitcher and Granular Particle Engines

The spectral glitcher is controlled with an XY Pad that moves between sonic flavors, from light timbral changes to aggressive mangling. Five Character types let you choose between smoother, liquid-like shifts and grittier, industrial textures. Stretch and Length controls manipulate time, pulling audio into new shapes.

The granular engine splits your audio into particles. Particle count and size range from high-end sparkle to low, crushing sub-glitches. Spread widens the result across the stereo field, Decay shapes the life cycle of the granular stream, and Entropy adds randomness to particle triggering. Pitch shifts the result from deep to bright.

Workflow, Controls and Presets

The interface is vector-based and resizable, with live metering to show processing in real time. The central Dry / Wet control balances each module against the original signal. AB comparison and copy and paste help you test different processing chains, and undo and redo let you revert changes.

Factory presets span a wide range of styles, giving you a starting point before you build your own settings. A PDF manual and tutorial video are included.
