Lenticular
Firmware for Clouds (Mutable Instruments)
Clouds firmware that rebuilds the granular mode around grain-spacing statistics (clump-free washes, quasiperiodic and rigid arpeggio timing), adds chord and detuned-pair grains, and replaces the spectral mode with a formant-preserving pitch shifter.
Brick risk. Flashing this carries a known, documented risk of damaging the device.

Description
The texture control walks from evenly spaced grains through quasiperiodic and random timing to a fixed arpeggio-style grid. Grains can land on chord tones, be paired as detuned twins, and be replayed as the same cloud on each trigger. Voice mode, which takes the place of the spectral mode, transposes voice or bass while keeping formants. Stretch and the looping delay remain as in stock Clouds. A separate alpha build targets Supercell-architecture modules such as the Typhoon and was untested on hardware at release.
Install notes
Standard Clouds audio update: hold the blend button at power-up and play the release WAV into the left input at full line level. The README warns that the audio transfer is fragile and to flash again if the module does not boot. Use the Clouds WAV only on original-architecture modules and the Typhoon WAV only on Supercell-architecture ones.
