I find the new piano keys too small. They are shorter and the white keys are narrower.I can set the range, but the on-screen keyboard doesn't resize accordingly, so with fewer keys, each key becomes larger. This adjustment would be especially helpful when I use the app solely with the mouse, which is usually the case. When there are fewer keys, I just randomize more often.

Fewer but bigger piano keys

I’m a huge fan of Snap to Transients. It would be great to have while I’m adjusting the loop brackets it snaps to transients to have a more accurate start and end loop.

It would be nice to have a special category in the categories filters for “uncategorized” samples that have no category tags- this would let you find/hide them in a manner similar to PIANO, SYNTH PAD, etc.

Suggestion: add Search Settings category for "uncategorized"

My Rando sample database is currently more than 1.6 million one-shots and loops. I assume majority of people won’t have collections that large, but some of us drawn to software like rando will. It’s actually tools like this that made me start collecting a lot more samples because it unlocks the ability to easily discover and utilize sounds from a large local library.Anyway, rando performs as well or better than other sample library tools, but wanted to share a few observations that might be useful for optimizing rando for large sample collections.#1 - It appears one of the first things rando does when it is opened is to check if there are any new samples found in the set sample locations, before the GUI even appears. I timed it with a stopwatch. If there are no new files found that rando doesn’t know about already, it currently takes about 10 seconds on my machine before the GUI appears and if there are a bunch of new samples in folders, it takes even longer. Last timed 50 seconds before the rando GUI is finally displayed on the screen when I had added a bunch of samples to my folders. No loading indicator, just nothing happens on screen for that long.People with fewer files and folders probably won’t have that extreme of a delay, but my suggestion is perhaps that new file check that occurs can be set to not take place on opening the plugin and instead be initiated manually when going to the sample locations settings area.#2 - The search settings area will total up the number of results from whatever filters are set. But even if no search filters are set, it will still query the total of all samples present in the whole database every time. That total is fixed and doesn’t change until new samples are added or removed, so it could be optimized to just store that big total of all samples somewhere instead of querying that number every time.For 1,651,890 results, it takes about 15-20 seconds for the search page to return that number back from the database.

Large Sample Library Performance

Compared to the previous release, sample folders are taking considerably longer to scan and load in this beta. Previously, adding folders completed within a few minutes. Currently, the loading process is still ongoing while typing this report.

Sample folders take significantly longer to load -> analysis takes too long

Add a random play mode with sensitivity that triggers random points in the sample

Random start play based on peaks in the sample

Theres needs to be an ability to choose what specific folder in a folder you want to randomize. For instance. One producer kits has like 12 different volumes . Adding all those folders will crowd the location area .. There has to be a way OR maybe give us a way to rename folders for Rando. If I got 12 different folders labeled Kicks I’ll add them but I need to know which kick folder it’s from . I don’t know maybe i’m just rambling. But there has to be a way to access sub folders because Category isn’t working it actually zeros out the actual search of what I select.

Access to Sub Folders

REMOVE GEAR INSIDE RANDO CIRCLE AND PLACE SOMEWHERE ELSE PLEASE.

Auto Find start is not working

SThe typical macOS “About” menu for an app item is missing. This was an observation with the previous official release of Rando 2.I don’t see any other way to tell I have 2.0.6 installed from within the interface of the app; I have to use Get Info in the finder.Sometimes a developer will put the software release info in the UI itself (AAS Player, for example) - but either way, it would be helpful to have when that information is needed.

uggestion: Rando should have a way to easily identify which software level is installed

As I understand it, the meaning of the second toggle state for the Categories filter, showing the category box as an outline with strike-through text, is to filter out or exclude samples tagged with that categoryFor consistency it would be nice if the…. should be consistent for the Location, Sample Type and Type toggles behaved in a consistent manner… clicking it once to include and a second time to filter / exclude the criteria. This would simplify, for example, excluding one location … instead of explicitly selecting all the locations except the one to be excluded, the excluded location toggle can be clicked twice to the filter it out explicitly.
