MonkeyC releases Rando – Randomizing Sampler Plugin

MonkeyC Audio has announced the release of Rando, a randomizing sampler plugin and standalone application for Mac and PC designed to encourage a new perspective on a user's collection of samples.

Point Rando to any folder containing samples, hit the button in the center, and a random selection of sounds will populate your keyboard or piano roll. Rando is designed to encourage the rediscovery lost samples and elements, arriving at happy accidents.

Rando is not meant to be an expensive, shiny mega-sampler – it's a lightweight creative tool that does things in a different way, helping real producers get real results. You can narrow down sample selection by type and with text search, and there's a deep-but-simple sequencer plus a creative FX section to get more out of your selections.

Features:

• Randomizing Sampler to discover new possibilities from your existing collection.
• Narrow your sample search by text, type and category.
• Tonal samples are automatically tuned, rhythmic samples automatically timestretched to tempo.
• Sampler playback functions include start/end times, direction, trigger/gate/loop, ADSR, Transpose and more.
• Life control brings analogue-style drift to samples.
• Chromatic mode spreads samples across the keyboard.
• Add six global effects – Filter, Chorus, Distortion, Crush, Delay and Reverb.
• Full sequencer section with randomizing function to generate patterns.
• Make support requests and suggestions from right inside the plugin. Upvote feature requests by others.

The plugin is available now as a VST3/AU/AAX plugin and standalone, for the introductory price of $49, rising to $69 from 2nd April 2024. All prices exclude VAT where applicable.
