Tempera: a granular instrument

[Tempera: A New Granular Instrument] Tempera is a new granular instrument by the makers of the Vector Synth. It features 8 sample slots, each represented by a verticle column, that can be played back polyphonically, 4 granular emitters, envelopes, lfos, a filter, and a reverb. This looks stunning and finally a really fresh innovative interface!

Not totally low-cost, though…
