Rando

Rando brings a fresh perspective on your sample library, helping you to stop using the same old samples or folders.

How it works

Point Rando to every folder where you keep samples, and click the huge 'Rando' button to let the fun begin! Rando places samples across your keyboard, letting you play your library and find sounds and combinations that work. You can lock samples and re-randomize to keep the flow going.

Advanced Search

Thanks to Rando's advanced search, you can filter samples by Type, Category, Loop/One-Shot, and even use a text search to specify certain sounds you'd like to have at your fingertips.

Sampling in-built

Rando provides all the sampling controls you'd expect, plus some options you may not have seen before:

• Sample Start / Sample End points and Loop Start / Loop End points selected on waveform.
• Sample playback modes include Loop, Normal (Gate) and One-shot (Trigger)
• Samples are matched to key and matched to tempo by default.
• Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release controls for sample playback.
• Life control adds subtle, analogue-style variation to a sample.
• Chromatic mode with mono, poly and legato glides (portamento).
• Velocity sensitivity, Volume control (gain), Transpose per sample.
• Similarity Search to select a sample with similar properties as a replacement.
• Forwards/Backwards playback direction.

Sequencer

Rando's sequencer lets you come up with and control note selection. Run up to 64 steps, with Note, Velocity and Length for each. The sequencer can be randomized intelligently, and you can introduce gaps in the pattern with the Spaces control, which is also tied to your modwheel.

There's Swing, MIDI transpose, sample auditioning, DAW sync, and preset saving in addition. You can also export MIDI from the sequencer for use in your DAW.

FX Section

Add processing to your global output with Chorus, Filter, Delay, Bitcrushing, Distortion and Reverb effects. Each has its own X/Y pad to customize an effect, plus a selector for effect type.
