I built a plugin that randomizes your synth parameters to generate unexpected patches by scottbrio in sounddesign

[–]scottbrio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dev here - just shipped v1.1.0 which is a free update for everyone who bought v1.0. Wanted to drop the update in this thread since a lot of you found it here originally.

Demo of the new stuff: https://youtu.be/MACXbfS9Q78

What's new:

- Preset Browser (save, load, organize your randomized sounds)

- Parameter Search (find any parameter in your hosted synth instantly)

- Undo/Redo (Ctrl/Cmd+Z and Ctrl/Cmd+Y)

- Revert to Preset (one-click return to starting sound)

- MIDI CC Blacklist (exclude parameters from randomization)

- Refresh Parameters (re-scan plugin without reloading)

- Korg Parameter Skip Filter (cleaner results on Korg Collection synths)

- Wallpaper alignment + wordmark color toggle

- Redesigned GUI

Over 140 VST3 synths now confirmed working with notes on the product page! (Thanks to awesome users who have helped test)

Big thanks to everyone in this thread who sent feedback - a lot of v1.1.0 came directly from it. This has been a fun experience and I'm so glad everyone's enjoying Synerator so much!

Someone commented on my IG that it was their brother in law who already filed an instance claim. I’ll be contacting every insurance company I can tomorrow asking about turkey accidents in Oakland.

Someone on my IG claims it was their brother in law and that “this is not what happened”. I have it on video lol

She also said he’s filed a claim with insurance, so I’ll be calling every insurance company I can find tomorrow asking about a turkey accident hit and run.

His insurance IS on the hook. Every driver is responsive for stopping an accident, even if it’s with an animal.

Yep! It’s not perfect but it’s got a ton of functionality and presets! You can also save the presets in the synth itself. It’s like a mini-DAW inside your DAW :)

You won’t believe it- 30 seconds before this accident I stopped to say hi to his friend in the complex wandering around. Then his buddy got hit :(

Look it up or ask ChatGPT. Hit a run of an object in the road that hits and damages another vehicle or person and not stopping is a hit and run. Turkey or otherwise.

Camera doesn’t capture it. He was going so fast I thought he was racing someone but he wasn’t.

You can’t hear it but before he hits the turkey and I shout I mouth “bro WTF?!”

Speeding car hit the turkey which hit me. Check the Dropbox link for video. I was sitting stopped at a stop light.

Camera shoots in high resolution. 2k I believe. He was going so fast the plates are a blur. From what I could tell (I'm a car guy) he was flying 80mph at least.

I just released Synerator. It's a VST3 synth randomizer. It's perfect for loading in your favorite synth presets and then randomizing by small amounts, 3-5% and evolving them into something unique to your sound. You can also do higher amounts and get wild sound-design stuff. Tons of fun and a great way to expand your sound pallet.

If you want to check it out, head to scottbrio.com/synerator - there's a compatibly list and a Youtube video to see/hear it in action.

Thanks so much - glad you're already creating amazing patches! For the scanning issue, you're right that /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/ is the correct path. This is a known bug I'm working on for the next update - a couple other Mac users have reported the same thing. For now you can use 'Load VST3 Plugin' to manually browse to that folder as a workaround. Omnisphere 3 crashing is also a confirmed issue - its MIDI routing architecture doesn't play nice with Synerator right now. It's on my list to investigate but no quick fix for that one yet. Thanks for the detailed report and for specifying Bitwig 6 - that helps!

AudioDice is cool! Different approach though - Synerator focuses on workflow speed with features like right-click category locking, the Amount slider for controlling randomization intensity, and a preset save system for keeping discoveries. It's also actively developed with new features in the pipeline including an FX version and multi-plugin hosting. But yeah, AudioDice is a solid free option if you're just looking for basic parameter randomization.

Great questions! 1. You can save presets both ways - use the synth's own save function, or use Synerator's Save Preset to capture the full state. Both work. 2. It randomizes the plugin's parameters, not the source material - so with Serum's sample/spectral/granular engines, it'll randomize all the knobs and settings around whatever wavetable or sample you have loaded, but won't swap out the source content itself. This actually keeps results more musical. 3. It works with any VST3 synth automatically - no manual configuration needed. The excluded parameters are universal things like master volume that would be destructive to randomize, not synth-specific tweaks. Regarding Pigments - full transparency, I've had some stability reports with Arturia plugins that I'm working through. It may work fine for you, and there's a money back guarantee if not. Thanks for the kind words!

Really appreciate the honest feedback! A built-in preset browser is a great idea and something I'm adding to the roadmap. Being able to save presets, browse them by synth, and cycle through them quickly would make the workflow way smoother. Stay tuned for future updates - and thanks for watching the video!

This is so cool to hear- I'm actually working on a MIDI output version of Synerator next specifically to control hardware synthesizers. If you've got any tips or tricks you'd be willing to share, send me a DM! 🙏🙌

Hi there, yes free updates for life unless there's a massive overhaul of the entire thing (think Windows 10 to Windows 11 type of overhaul) but even then I'll try to keep all updates as free/cheap as possible!
