Partials
Playable resynthesis: a loaded sample is analysed once into tracked partials plus the noise they leave behind, then every note plays it back additively at the note's pitch. Transposing keeps the sample's formants where they were, so a voice an octave up still sounds like the same voice. Partials thins the stack from the top and morph crossfades between sets.
What it does
Partials is a synth: it turns notes into sound. It takes notes in and gives audio out.
Try it
Drop in a voice sample and play it as a keyboard that never turns into a chipmunk.
