Meldaproduction's MSoundfactory and MPowersynth both offer randomization buttons for changing parameters.

The first and the best: Crystal. It's a pity it will probably never be updated as it needs some GUI love.
I started on Logic 5 with a PowerBook G4 550Mhz. I now have a MacBook Air M1 and it's ~165x faster! So, why is my music not proportionally better? :(

Crystal's like an old friend. Crystal can remember there being an East Germany.

Is that still available? I think the CM version of that was one of the first VSTs I ever tried!

Nope. Sadly, they folded a couple of years back. Scanned Synth was the original, followed by Enzyme, which I have. It's an unruly synth, but capable of great beauty.

Some great ones listed here that I was unaware of. My list was already mentioned, but thank you for the new things to check out!

Serum has had the "Hybridize" feature which es essentially a scaled down version of Absynth's mutate.

Atlantis https://www.kvraudio.com/product/atlant ... remy-evers can randomize some parameters or all
I'm tied to Cubase these days, so can only use 64-bit stuff but, I do remember Oatmeal being one of the better freebies "back in the day".
i use jbridge to get old favourite 32s into cubase, works great

I love randomizers in all plugins!

one of my favorites is HomeGrown Sounds
https://hgsounds.com/product-category/kontakt/
Several randomizers in each instrument.
Big sale currently and Group Buy going on.
Some fantastic bargains.

Phonec 2 has a randomize button (!?!) for most of its sections.

every synth used in Orion, and most using Orions Genetics function (depending on browser)

Does it now? I've not noticed that. Is it new-ish? I may not have a very recent version.

I find it hit and miss. For example, my beloved SQ8L just bloody refuses to work! :(
