sqsl RSVP 4+

sqsl RSVP is a random sample player and sample recorder, suitable for generating non-repeating ambient soundscapes from your audio files - bits of field recordings, glitches, voices, meditative sounds, etc...

There are 4 slots, each can have a separate directory (containing audio samples) assigned. DENSITY controls amount of samples being heard at the same time (max 8 per slot) and VOLUME controls audio level of each slot. Density can be zeroed using OFF buttons. Individual samples have their volume and pan slightly randomized. If sample is selected and played, it will not play again until all other unused samples in its slot/directory have been played. Horizontal line above READ button displays amount of used/unused samples. The process restarts when all the samples have been used.

If new directory is selected, it will not play until all samples from current directory are used unless FWD button is pressed (FWD button is visible only if new directory is queued) - in that case, samples from original directory that are already scheduled will still be played before samples from new directory are scheduled. Supported audio file types are WAV, MP3, AIF, AAC, M4A.

Recording section allows audio input to be recorder into WAV files (mono or stereo). Select recording destination directory first using PATH button. Names of the newly recorded samples will be derived from target directory name (directory name + index). If same directory is selected in one of the playback slots, newly recorded samples will be automatically added to playback pool.

Incoming audio can be sent to outputs 1-2 for monitoring - MON button (watch out for feedback if using microphone with speakers). L+R button activates stereo mode - stereo samples will be recorded using signal from input channels 1-2. 

Integrated "MIDI controller" can be used to send MIDI notes, modwheel, pitch bend and one CC message to selected MIDI destination. Cycle through available destination by tapping MIDI button (destinations are scanned when app is started). MIDI channel can be set using CH button.

sqsl RSVP is a standalone application, it can not be used as plugin and its output can not be routed to other apps within software environment.
