Using scripts to control other instruments

I want to be able to place some things on the UI, and by clicking on one a specific group gets selected to be able to sound. The simplest way to get started I think is to just use labels. I haven't been able to find and or understand a way to do this, but I know it is done. Help! :) Thanks.

Random Sample Start Position for 2 Groups to maintain sync
Hi, I am wondering how the Random Unipolar method for randomizing a sample's start position works when it comes to 2 groups. Does Group 1 receive a different random unipolar signal to group 2? I assume each group's start is randomized and therefore they lose their sync? Is there a way to randomize the sample start…
