Playground is a creative sample player useful for several genres (Hip Hop, House, Ambient & more). It comes with 50 carefully designed kits, each consists of 16 samples which all go along very well (no need for music theory). These kits consist of drums and or sounds (like chords, bass & more) or a mixture of those. It's fun and easy to play around and quickly get song ideas and variations. It's also possible to use more than one instance to combine different kits to get more complex structures (CPU friendly). This instrument is most fun with a grid / pads MIDI controller but works nicely with any other MIDI device. The onboard effects (reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, pitch / pan LFO) and the amp envelope let you shape the sound some more. This instrument is meant to give you quick and direct inspirations without thinking too much.

Cycles & Spots crafted an easy to use (randomizable) groovebox for Reaktor for House to Minimal featuring 8 tracks (bass, chord, melody, kick, hihat, clap, snare, percussion). It comes with 50 main presets (song sketches, free to use) and 400 underlying sequencer presets. These can be randomized per button press or manually edited. The randomizer chooses random scales, key, sequences, drum samples, synth presets and modulations – that leads to a lot of possible outcomes to start your own creations quickly. This all means that this groovebox is easy to use for beginners but also let's you go deeper if you want. Patterns can be selected per MIDI and so arranged into songs in a DAW (or simply recorded). If you know the C&S' Deep Minimal Trax Maker series – this is similar but offers much more control over each single elements since no loops are used here.
