@section{method}
ar
@section{argument}
numChannels
the number of channels to output. If 1, mono is returned and pan is ignored.
@section{argument}
trigger
a kr or ar trigger to start a new grain. If ar, grains after the start of the synth are sample accurate.
@section{argument}
dur
size of the grain (in seconds).
@section{argument}
sndbuf
the buffer holding a mono audio signal. If using multi-channel files, use Buffer.readChannel.
@section{argument}
rate
the playback rate of the sampled sound
@section{argument}
pos
the playback position for the grain to start with (0 is beginning, 1 is end of file)
@section{argument}
interp
the interpolation method used for pitchshifting grains:
@section{list}
## 1 = no interpolation
## 2 = linear
## 4 = cubic interpolation (more computationally intensive)
::
@section{argument}
pan
determines where to pan the output.
@section{list}
## If numChannels = 1, no panning is done.
## If numChannels = 2, panning is similar to Pan2.
## If numChannels > 2, panning is the same as PanAz.
::
@section{argument}
envbufnum
the buffer number containing a signal to use for the grain envelope. -1 uses a built-in Hann envelope.
@section{argument}
maxGrains
the maximum number of overlapping grains that can be used at a given time. This value is set at the UGens init time and can't be modified. Defaults to 512. This can be set lower for more efficient use of memory.
@section{warning}
The above parameter is new (post SC 3.3.1) and has the potential to break code written <= 3.3.1. This parameter is BEFORE the mul slot, and you may need to update code to account for this difference. ::
@section{argument}
mul
@section{argument}
add
@section{discussion}
All args except numChannels and trigger are polled at grain creation time.
