Mario Nieto World Novagrid – Multi-Lane Audio Modulation Sequencer.
Novagrid is a four-lane audio modulation sequencer that reshapes incoming audio in real time. Instead of generating sound, it applies rhythmic volume, pan, filter, and bit-crush modulation to any signal, creating evolving patterns, grooves, and motion inside your DAW or as a standalone app.
Key Features
