<Random Bell Sequencer>  | |||
1.Description   | |||
I'm currently studying acoustics in the media arts department,  | |||
So I decided to make a simple random sequencer as the first patch of this term.  | |||
Generally, it is a mechanism that controls the operation sequence of a machine by starting the next operation with the signal that one operation has finished with the sequencer.  | |||
A mechanism that continuously controls a sequencer and a series of operations in Midi. A peripheral device of a synthesizer, which is an automatic musical instrument.  | |||
2. Function   | |||
Metro and Counter,  | |||
Using these objects in combination with others to create patch which coordinates the playback of sound files over time.  | |||
Metro is Metronome,   | |||
When turned on, with a toggle, it outputs a bang at  | |||
a specified number of millisecond (ms.). This argument can be included in the  | |||
object or changed dynamically with a numerical input to the right inlet.  | |||
Counter does exactly what I would expect it to: it counts. It takes arguments  | |||
for direction (0 - up, 1 - down, 2 - up/down) and a range. This counter, as it's  | |||
set up now, counts up from 1 to 4. Take time to look at the help for counter to  | |||
find out about all of its other inlets and outlets.   | |||
Random only works with integers, but notice that it only  | |||
takes a little math to use it to produce floats.  | |||
minimum and maximum function similarly.  | |||
Used scale in conjunction with a sizable random allows  | |||
to produce random numbers in any range.   | |||
