The Fable gives you five all-new programs centered around sample and chop delay algorithms to create bizarrely beautiful networks of sampled and resampled sounds. The Fable uses a powerful dual DSP architecture to combine delay programs in series with granular sampling algorithms, each with its own analog feedback path. Find unique soundscapes ranging from smooth, flowing ambience; to bizarre, organic reverberance; to chaotic, glitchy swarms.  

So, what exactly is this granular effect and why is it a magicale xperience when combined with delay? Granular is a digital processing technique of micro-sampling, wherein short samples called grains are read from a delaybuffer. In the Fable, players can adjust these grains by manipulating their sampling length, position, and buffer size from which they’re read. They can be played at double or half speed for pitch shift and time stretching effects,play them in reverse, read from multiple positions, and more, in order to achieve different effects.

It’s a powerful but complex technique and Walrus Audio created five streamlined programs in the Fable that explore different aspects of its sonic range.
