Key Features
The BEATSURFING RANDOM Metal is a percussive synthesizer plugin, designed to give you endless drum tones without ever needing to search through samples or loops. RANDOM Metal is built for producers exploring percussive sound design, experimental textures and unpredictable rhythms. Whether you're creating beats, soundtracks or soundscapes, RANDOM Metal makes it easy to shape unexpected results. With over 40 unique sound engines from sharp cymbals to noisy hits and shakers, you’ll get fast access to layered percussion or metallic chaos.
The RANDOM button lets you shake things up instantly, while adjustable deviance means you control how wild it gets. An XY Pad gives you real-time expression over dozens of engine-specific parameters, ideal for performance or production tweaks. Plus, with dual modes that include trigger-based or chromatic, you can play it like a kit or a synth.
Product Ref: 353098
RANDOM Metal gives you direct access to over 40 percussive sound types, so you’re never stuck digging through sample folders. Each pad brings a different texture, from crisp hi-hats and metallic hits to off-kilter experimental tones. Every sound can be shaped using detailed controls like decay, pitch shift, impact, and FX colour.
The RANDOM button is where things get interesting. One click instantly transforms your current sound and you control how dramatic the change is using the deviance setting. Want a subtle shift in tone? Or a completely new direction? Just adjust the dial. This feature is ideal for breaking creative blocks or discovering unexpected sonic paths without needing to manually tweak every setting.
The built-in XY Pad gives you deep control over your sound with just a swipe. Linked to hundreds of engine-specific parameters, the pad lets you morph, bend or distort your percussion in real time. It’s perfect for performance, automation or simply experimenting with different feel and texture. Each movement responds uniquely depending on the sound engine, making every interaction feel fresh and full of potential.
With dual playback modes, RANDOM Metal works the way you want. In Trigger mode, you get 12 playable pads, making it ideal for beat-making or finger-drumming. Switch to Chromatic mode and you can play pitched percussion as a melodic instrument. This flexibility is great for both rhythm-driven tracks and more experimental, harmonic sound design giving you one tool that adapts to many creative needs.
"Dear GOD. RANDOM Metal is bonkers. This is the closest thing I’ve found to recreating something like Machinedrum or Monomachine. You guys win. Huge fan!" - Jonathan Shelton
"Whoa – RANDOM Metal is so much fun… It kinda made me a bit giggly to be honest. I tried to break it as usual, but no dice. Very cool" - Gus Granite
