Cool device according to the description.
Unfortunately only for Live users.
I want that functionality in a VST plugin.

Thanx a lot!
I just checked their website and watched the video.
Looks like what I am dreaming of.
And it's free... :party: :hug:

Wow I just played with it a bit. This is the best solution to create controlled randomization that I have tried.
Thanx again! so cool. :band: :tu:

Those tools are great but the catch with all of them is that they work as hosts. The moment you load an instrument or effect inside them, its parameters are exposed to the randomizer, not to the DAW anymore. So while the randomization itself is powerful, you lose direct DAW-level access to the plugins automation parameters. And once your workflow depends on proper automation inside the DAW, that becomes a major limitation.

I'm not seeing them as very optimal tools, but if you are being lazy one day or bored, you can set one up to get decent to nifty results--and once you have some sound you want, remove the randomizer plugin to expose the parameters again. Given how drastic the changes can be, I wouldn't use them for live performances--maybe random LFOs on a few targeted parameters would serve better if one wanted randomness live.
Doing nothing is only fun when you have something you are supposed to do.
