DESCRIPTION

Overla++ is an implementation of an overlap-add method for texture synthesis, as described in this paper: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/287703709_Sound_Texture_Synthesis_Using_an_Overlap-AddGranular_Synthesis_Approach

It is a very simple grain algorithm that is meant to be used with long samples (several seconds in length) and long grains (up to 2 seconds) to generate convincing ("natural sounding") soundscapes, altough I find it works well as a fast and easy "shuffler" style effect when operating with short grain sizes.

Cool. This is similar to what I'm working on at the moment. Will have to check it out.
