Re: [elektron] Re: a MUST new sequencer feature!!!

Yes Yes Yes!!!!!! - a randomize machine settings generator. What a useful
propasition!
I have this on one of my synth patch editors and its the perfect route to
getting new sounds. Yeah you have to tweak still, its more useful to me from
the point of view that I get tired starting out from the same sounds.
Randomize would put an end to me saying (to myself) 'oh no not another lets
make a new variation of the trx kick/snare etc.


Please Please please Elektron. (Please?)

 On that same note, one feature that the MD lacks is a "randomize"
function.  I often use randomizers when I'm in a rut.  Helps a lot...
It would be cool to see both randomize pattern and randomize
currently selected machine!  That would be a great way to discover
new and different sounds...
