What is the difference between !Random and !Random1000?
Is there a database for info on all hot parameters that I could access?
I am using the Keymapped Multisample and a sequencer to play a folder of samples using {!Random1000 * 127} is this the most efficient way? Are there suggestions I should consider? Also, is there a way that I could variably substitute a sample that is triggered by the sequencer with another sample, say from another sequencer?
{!Thanks * (A + Billion)}

!Random and !Random1000 are two of the ways to generate random numbers. !Random gives a new random number each time the expression containing it is evaluated, and !Random1000 gives a new random number every millisecond (1000 hz).

Other ways to generate random numbers include triggered random numbers (for example, !KeyDown nextRandom), or random numbers at other rates (for example, 0.1 s random).


If you want to choose between sets of random samples, perhaps the best way is to use the same technique but restrict the range of random numbers. For instance,

(!Random1000 * 63) + (!Choose * 64)

if !Choose is zero, then you will get 0-63 as a result, and if !Choose is one, then you will get 64-127 as a result.
