The reason it's not working is because pasted sounds (that travel through the stereo Kyma wires) like sample rate signals are limited to +/-1 (sort of). But it's actually a twos complement number which get absolutely down to exactly -1 but never quite makes absolute +1, more like 0.99999999999 so it never selects the second value in the array.

This is because zero is considered to be the first positive vaule and so there is one less value to uses for the highest positive value (which would be absolute one) and hence it doesn't quite reach value plus one in the way that it does reach minus one.

So you can make it work by adding 0.0000001 to the [SoundToGlobalController] L inside both gate fields (or just add 0.5 instead).

OR

Use !RandomNr instead of [SoundToGlobalController] L in the gate fields. Global Hot parameters are not limited to +/- 1. In this case you would have to make the SoundToGlobalController module silent and paste it in the final mixer, else it will disappear.

I hope this makes sense

thanks for the information and help! I followed Petes way (because I could remember it most easily), but now I have the problem that the same samples cannot be retriggered, probably because the trigger doesn't return to "0". I tried to solve this with PulseTrains (in the sound "Ensemble" in the attachment) but somehow it doesn't work. Do you have a solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Best,

Florian

It all depends what you want it to do.

If you want the trigger to randomly trigger one or the other, then put the formula that's in the gate field in brackets and multiply it by !Trigger.

[STGC] L asLogicValue

(where, [STGC] is the Sound you have pasted into the Gate field).

In your Ensemble_3 Sound, for example, you have

(!RandomNr of: #(0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0)) * !Trigger

The problem you are encountering is that !Trigger changes !RandomNr through the SoundToGlobalController, so your Sample sees !Trigger changing first, then !RandomNr. This is what is causing the occasional multiple triggers.

One way to prevent the random triggers is to sample and hold the random number:

I Haven't tried this but I think another way that might work (without the ghost triggers), is to put most of the hard work in one place like this....

If you wanted 12 samples then In the sound to global controller put

( ( ( ( !Trigger nextRandom abs )*12)truncated)+1)*!Trigger

with !RandomNr as the output as you have it at the moment.

and in each gate you put

!RandomNr eq: 1

!RandomNr eq: 2

etc

Make sure you don't use eq: 0 as that is the rest value when nothing should be triggered.

OR

In the sound to global controller put
( ( ( ( ( !Trigger nextRandom abs )*12)truncated)+1)*!Trigger)/12

and in each gate put

([soundToGlobalController] L * 12) eq: 1

([soundToGlobalController] L * 12) eq: 2

etc

If you don't want to put the STGC in the mixer.

Hope it helps
