How can I randomise radio stations in the radio au ap?
How can I randomise radio stations in the radio au ap?
Is this possible? I have the stations saved and saved in the AUM menu as loadable presets.
Thanks in advance

Sorry, I don't know, but am interested in an answer.
You want to just pick a station at random for normal listening?
Or do you want to achieve a particular audio effect, like a fast mash up of sounds from different stations all jumbled together?
@Toastedghost can you load several instances and use mutemaster on random?
That's what I was going to suggest. I've tried that - quite interesting results.
Also tried 4Pockets MIDI Mixer automated switching between different stations. Also interesting.
Hmmm… trying to avoid Mute Master it seems to be the finale nail in the coffin regarding Dsp.
Use 2 radio units in pararel being turn off and on against each other. Was looking at a mehod of radomly chosing a radio station. The results of which are then feed into Beatcutter, then Turnado and then Gatelab to be finally recorded by 1 of 6 Ensos.
A mash up is what I am going for, yes.
Woah - kitchen sink production!
I would have thought the rest of the set up would have been a DSP killer even before adding MuteMaster.
Why not just start with MuteMaster switching between stations and just record that as a long audio file.
Then feed that audio file into your Beatcutter, Turnado, Gatelab, Enso sausage machine?
The slight problem with that approach, which I might use at home, is that this is a live setup.
What's stopping you playing your pre-prepared radio recording into your sausage machine at a live performance? You can still manipulate it live using Beatcutter, Turnado, Gatelab, & Enso on stage.
Yes I suppose that is a possibility, though I like working with live radio live if you see what I mean
Yeah, I know what you mean. But with a live feed you might get "not so good" bits from the random stations. But if you record a long (say 30 mins) piece you can only include bits that you think will sound good mangled.
And with a long 30 mins recording there will be a lot of variety and randomness by the time you put it through the sausage machine.
Bonus: and by using a recording there is no chance of the internet dropping out and you losing your audio source. Ya' can't mangle if there's nothing to mangle...
If you have them saved as AUM presets then you could map a range of CCs to them in AUM’s preset load MIDI automation. Then all you’d need is something to send a random CC in that range. A couple of lines of Mozaic code would do it.
Great idea @wim though I am dsylexic and have no idea on how to code. I might pop it in the Mozaic thread if some kind person could help.
cheers
I’m writing something right now. Be done shortly.
Here’s a really basic script. You probably find ways that it needs to be changed to fit your workflow but I thought it would be easier to have a starting point.
Map consecutive CCs starting at zero to all your presets. Then set the highest cc you have using the first knob. The channel defaults to 16 but you can change that with the second knob. Hit the first pad and a random CC between zero and the highest cc will be sent.

Thank you so much will try this out
Why not just use the "Station" AUv3 parameter that can be modulated too?
Using two Radio Units, seamless switching between stations would be possible.
Note: Switching to a different station needs some time for buffering, that's why I've increased the Phase on the last LFO and lowered the project bpm - of course the switching could be done in many different better ways.
You may also want to use the user preset area only...
I know it’s not what you’re asking for but you could record say, 50 random radio snippets and load them into the sampler and trigger them randomly. The results wold be pretty much the same and you wouldn’t need to worry about the internet connection or the cpu load.
Wicked ideas guys. Thanks
Could you please show me do I map station radion button to lfo?
Sure!
First of all, the order of modules is important in Drambo. First comes the LFO, then the knob to modulate.
Grab the LFO module by its head, move it down and move it in front of the Radio Unit.
Then tap on the "Station" knob , connect it to the output of the LFO, set the station knob to minimum and the LFO mod knob left from it to maximum like I've shown in the screenshot.
1.open Radio-Unit AU app
2. On the right of the sceen, press on “Map” then press on the little (1) symbol
3. Select Station
Judging from the screenshot, that she managed to do already 😊
I find this radio station switching fun enough to proceed with my old project so if you're patient enough, I'll come up with a more refined D project in the next days.
Yes I did map the station in th Radio Unit but how do I link that to the LFO module?
Cheers
Wait, what? I don't see a station AUv3 parameter in AUM?
I never looked in Drambo after not finding it in AUM. But as you say, it is there in Drambo.
See my post before.
