Playbeat 4 Big Randomize Button doesn't honor Pitch Custom Range

Help & Support

This seems to be a bug?

When I press the three dots to randomize pitch in the Pitch tab - it uses my Custom Pitch Ranges.

When I press the big orange button to randomize all, it ignores my Custom Pitch Ranges.

Playbeat 4 VST3 (Cubase 14.0.20, Win10 22H2)

Yes, the two buttons use different randomization algorithms. The main randomization follows the pattern/sounds/all scopes, the overall complexity, and the genre selection algorithms (if enabled). The tab-specific randomization is triggered using the small dice icon available on each tab.

Ok - thanks for clarifying.

So I’ll have to deactivate pitch randomization when using the big orange button and do the pitch randomization separately when driving external sound modules via the Playbeat 4 MIDI.

I think that’s different than it was in Playbeat 3.
