Feature wish: Create kit with random samples from folder

Hey guys, just send a feature request to Akai: Creating new kits with randomly chosen samples. Using similar features with my VST plugs Atlas and XO, which is super inspiring. Maybe that could be worth a vote?

Bad Idea unless the sample name is tracked - dont want a kick end up on my snare pad ...

I like this idea. But lets think this through.

Sample category / types that we can set first, is best, to prevent a kick popping up in a snare position.

I see the first part of such a feature is creating your own sample types categories, i.e. kicks, snares, melody, one shots, loops, etc. Then next screen would be designing a drum program zones template where you specify which pads / rows / columns / banks will be reserved for the previous sample types you created. Next would be selecting one of the folders you already have on a removable drive that you already populated with samples for a specific category type. So if I wanna randomly fill all the pads and zones I selected for "kicks" or otherwise Id select the folder I already put together with different samples of said type that Id want the randomized picks of kicks to occur. Etc. Etc. Randomizing can be implemented many o' ways. So ...thats my version.

Big fan of Atlas, but ATM I feel Akai should be more focused on fixing the core features and overall workflow. If I want Atlas-style features, I open up in the MPC Software and run that VST from there.

Akai Will put that Feature in the Next MPC Model at 2019 NAMM
