Particle

The Particle by Red Panda is a granular delay/pitch shifting pedal designed for real-time manipulation of audio signals. Here are the technical specifications and features:

- Design: Digital
- Input Impedance: 1 MΩ
- Output Impedance: < 1 kΩ
- Power Supply: 9V DC, center negative
- Power Consumption: 100 mA
- Bypass Mode: True Bypass
- Mono/Stereo: Stereo In, Stereo Out
- Knobs: Blend, Chop, Delay/Pitch, Param, and Feedback
- Modes: Detune, Density, LFO, Random, Pitch, Reverse
- Dimensions: 9.3 x 4.3 x 11.6 cm
- Made in: USA

The Particle 2 uses a more powerful processor, offering improved fidelity, usability, and knob responses. It features a smaller enclosure, stereo (TRS) input/output with mono or stereo input, random stereo panning, presets (4 on front panel, 127 via MIDI), soft-touch switches, momentary freeze footswitch, tap tempo with note divisions, higher sampling rate, higher headroom, improved pitch shifting, longer delay time, longer maximum grain size, more simultaneous grains, multiple pitch quantization settings, multiple feedback types, additional parameters, USB MIDI, multi-purpose control port for expression pedal, CV, remote switches, and USB firmware updates.

The Particle is capable of creating radical pitch and delay modulation, shimmering repeats, time stretching, stutter, and glitch sounds. It offers extensive control over parameters, including delay time, grain density, LFO speed, direction probability, pitch shift amount, and randomization range.

The pedal also supports presets, tap tempo, trails mode, and a web editor for accessing all parameters, configuring the pedal, and managing presets. It is suitable for musicians who enjoy creating new sonic experiments and soundscapes.
