polyphonic sample playback using MC

Hi, first time posting and still very much a beginner in Max.

I'm trying to figure out what I think is a simple idea, I want to have one short percussive sample played back with varying start times. This is to replicate multiple individuals hitting something or clapping in unison but slightly out of time with each other.

The closest I've got to a solution is using mc.groove~with a deviate message and loop and timestretch on. However I want to control the trigger of the sample and then for a number of samples to be played back at random intervals from each other. I thought mc.play~ would help but I don't know how to trigger the delay of each channel.

Alternatives solutions could be either setting up something granular or a chorus/fast delay, but then the delay would be too uniform?

For context the idea is inspired by Jose Maceda 'Udlot Udlot' which has a chorus of percussion hits.

Thanks!
