Borderlands Granular 2.0 Update & Giveaway


You may remember our Borderlands Granular review from some time ago (in our Classics For A Reason series). We praised the exceptional sound-creation qualities, pointing out its only weakness, the lack of connectivity – ‘I really hope the next update is soon in coming – because it could really turn this app into a killer music creation machine’.
Well, here we are. This iOS granular masterpiece has just received an impressive 2.0 update that added all that was missing and much more.
Among the new features:

  • Gesture recording and looping
  • Parameter automation
  • Save and load presets as “scenes”
  • Resonant filters available for each grain cloud Optional per-grain filter randomization
  • Create custom granular effects processors

To celebrate Borderlands Granular 2.0 we partnered with the developer to give away 3 copies of the app.
