Randomizing presets

Anyone else in here who uses this technique? Some vst's generate crappy presets in 99% of the time when randomizing, but there are some which give awsome & original presets in like 20% of the cases...
These are the vst's which give good randomized sounds:
- Synapse Hydra (be careful not to blow up your speakers!!)
- FL Drumsynth Live (some original perc sounds) (not a vst)
- Synapse Scorpion
- Imposcar (be careful not to blow up your speakers!!)
- Polysix (part of korg legacy collection)
Of course you can tweak the sounds afterwards to fit them to your tracks
- Do you guys know any more synths in which this technique succeeds?
- Do any of you guys do this too?
- Is this cheating? |

The sysex editor i use for my FM (frequency modulation- yamahas) synths and modules has a randomise function.... hit or miss but it can often give a good basis for some further editing of the random.
I think they put it in as most people dont have a clue how to program FM

| Linplug Albino achieves some good results when randomizing, it even has an integrated randomize-button you can make rather small random changes... But you have to watch out for your speakers as well, sometimes it exceeds the limits. |

BTW.
Do you guys think presets are cheating?
I'm sure this has been done over and over many times and i used the searach function so haha.:whip: |

I think many people uses presets as a base, and then tweak them as they want or need to get away from that basic preset sound.
I rarely use randomize though, it never produces anything good for me so I say screw it :stongue: I'm not lucky enough |

| I ususally randomise Crystal to get wierd background noises. Have to do it about 50 times to get anything to work with and tweak it from there. |

Hehe yeah, i must admit its a lottery.
Its not likely Armin van Buuren opens 40 instances of V-Station, Pro-53 and Z3ta and randomizes all their presets and notes and comes up with Shivers... |
