As a work-around I've used the following:

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=875&p=21126&hilit=random+lfo#p21349

Basically modulating a fast S&H LFO's rate to zero with a negative envelope. Works great for random pitch changes, subtle filter changes, panning, etc.

Thanks for the quick response!

Yes, this would be an excellent feature to implement. My Roland XV-5080 has this feature, and I use it quite a bit.

This is exactly how I thought to implement a 'random analog' aspect to any parameter. By setting the LFO Rate to 0, you can get this result, but it's not always guaranteed you will get a new value with each key press. We need to work on this still to make it better.

Hi, folks, I'm not a Solaris owner yet, but I may become one in the near future.

I had a question, though, regarding the random LFOs.

Is it possible to do something like this:

(1) Take a random (i.e. sample & hold) LFO

(2) Have the LFO modulate filter cutoff

(3) Have the LFO only change the cutoff frequency when a key is pressed and keep the same frequency the entire time that the key is held down (the last bit is very important!)
