from Wikipedia, "It is based on the same principle as sampling. However, the samples are not played back conventionally, but are instead split into small pieces of around 1 to 50ms. These small pieces are called grains. Multiple grains may be layered on top of each other, and may play at different speeds, phases, volume, and frequency."
The high end granular synths split sound up even smaller than 1 ms.

OK, I've heard of granular synthesis, but haven't got a clue what it is. Simple explanation for we simple folks?

I finally got a piece of software that does a very musical job of granular synthesis. So, I took elements from the first 15 seconds of my album and time expanded it to 3 minutes and added a few knick knacks. I think y'all'll enjoy it. The tron sounds great slowed waayyy down. Susan's voice sounds great too. Very ambient and trippy!
