Being able to randomise the synth patch edit screen, as a start point for new patch generation would be really good.
a key combo randomises all synth parameters, you can undo or randomise again. then edit & save.

What is the problem?

a tool like randomise when editing a patch from scratch can be a great tool to aid creativity.

What do you want to achieve?

a randomise page function for synth patch edit screen.
randomise patch - undo - randomise again - save. kind of thing. then edit to taste.

Are there any workarounds?

no

Any links to related discussions?

Any references to other products?

elektron gear has page randomise function “page + yes”. its so good for synthesis. brings you in directions you wouldn’t have gone otherwise.

The Volca FM2 also generates randomized Patches. They are based on the selected patch so the generatet patch will be similar but different.

I think that function would perfectly fit to the simplifyed conept of the Play

I am really missing a randomised init patch and functionality to create random variations of existing patches on the tracker mini as it is a little cumbersome to do sound design on it.

This is something i really loved about my Clavia Nord Lead A1, you hitted random 5 times and then you are at a interest point of the Sound design.

You should check out the amount of customization you can get on the ASM Hydrasynth in regards to randomization. You can randomize the entire patch with a % of how much it impacts each module, randomize per Module (Oscillator, Filter, LFO, etc), randomize any parameter. Random patch selection, and randomize modules from other patches. Crazy amount of fun!!

I would love to do this… similar to other companies who allow to randomize synth settings based on a page.
