Suggestion for New Sampler Command in Virtual DJ
I would like to suggest the creation of a new command for controlling the Sampler in the software. The idea is for a command that would play the samples randomly, but ensuring that each sample within the active folder or bank is played once before repeating. This command could be called sample_play_random or sample_play_random_unique.
How it would work:
When executed, the command would select and play a random sample from the active folder or bank.
It would ensure that each sample is played once before any repetition occurs.
For example, if the bank contains five samples, it would randomly select one of the five, but avoid repeating any sample until all have been played.
This feature would be extremely useful for live performances, adding dynamism and keeping things fresh for the audience.

Can you elaborate on what kind of samples you would be using with this feature?
I can't really imagine as a dj that you would start a sample without knowing which one will play

I made something like this for a radio guy once for background music. I can't see how you'd want it for live performance though.

Samples are not necessarily audio! For example you could play random video loops, or random still images...
In the discussion about Tellymedia/visuals I was going to suggest adding a beatgrid based timer to the sampler and/or slideshow, so that images/videos/drops/loops could be changed in sync to the beat.
The sampler has banks, so you can organise things - but there's no auto play. The slideshow can play through a folder - but there are no banks. No way of making presets (like the text plugin).

banks - slideshow play folders, if slideshow followed shortcut.lnk , you have your banks there.
