Device Overview
| Name/Version: | Deck of Random 1.0 |  |
| Author: | wblamkin | |
| Description: | Deck of Random (2020) is a Max for Live 4x random source that uses a virtual deck of playing cards to generate its randomness. Each suit can be mapped to any parameter in Ableton Live, and when a card is drawn from the deck, that suit’s value changes to the number value of that card (1-13). In this way, four different random sources are constantly effecting the probability of each other. Cards can be manually or automatically drawn at a set interval. The deck will automatically reshuffle after the last card is drawn, or can be reshuffled at any time. |

| Just downloaded it and about to give it a try. But before I do, kudos to making a device that breaks away from a boring GUI. Thank you for sharing this device to the community. |

| such a unique fun twist on the whole random param generator type thing. |
| Thank you both! Wanted to make something I hadn't seen before, so I'm glad it's being appreciated! |
| btw, i get a white outlined box instead of the cards showing up in the card area (windows 10, abes 11.0, bundled max) - it's obvs not a big deal as the most important part: random params/mapping still work, but just thought i'd mention it. |
| Hmmm, it?s calling Unicode so the cards should be universal, so it?s most likely a font issue. Perhaps Max for Live is calling a different default font that isn?t Unicode compatible on Windows? I?ll have to double check that. Thanks for letting me know! |
| Awesome! This is very cool. No cards for me either but it seems to work well otherwise. |
