Description

Drag in front of a Wavetable-Device to randomize Wavetable Categories and Wavetables.

1.2.2: Exclude/include category "User" into Randomization

1.2: Now works in Instrument Racks and Drum Racks

1.1.1: Some minor changes and bugfixes

1.1: Added option to randomize both Oscillators with one click.

Added auto-detect wavetable device.

    This is a cool idea. I highly suggest making the trigger for both oscillators mappable to an LFO. Then you can set it to keep randomizing every bar, 2 bars, half note etc or whatever. It would make it's usefulness increase.

    Thanks, I believe this would only work with a squarewave LFO, i consider it. However, I thought about adding a miditrigger, so that every note would randomize to a new setting or something that’s tied to the transport, which would result to what you suggested.

    if you place it before having a wavetable instrument in your track then it doesnt seem to work - maybe if it never finds a wavetable device, have it look for one anytime you click the randomize buttons, that way it will always find the wavetable instrument and you dont have to do it in order.
    thanks

    Heya this is swell!
    You think the same idea would work for the drop down menus on the Hybrid Reverb?

    Thanks! If they are exposed in the Live-API it can be done.

    would be cool to have a toggle to remove User Wavetable from the randomization category, but looking forward to your new devices too

    VERY COOL. Is there any chance you could make the parameters midi mappable?

    Great device! Midi mappable parameters would be awesome.
