Author	Topic: expressions library
trotz Member	posted 18 February 2012 15:19 Could this be a typo or am I missing something? Copy/pasted from the Expressions Library. ----> "Time index (random) Use this in the TimeIndex field (of a SampleCloud or SumOfSines for example) to run backwards and forwards at random rates through the file. !Rate controls how often a new random rate is selected." 5 s random smooth: 5 s <---- Maybe it should have been this one? !Rate s random smooth: !Rate s I like the more flexible... (!StillTime +!SlidingTime) s random smooth: !SlidingTime s Regards [This message has been edited by trotz (edited 18 February 2012).] IP: Logged
SSC Administrator	posted 18 February 2012 17:46 Correct, the comment and the expression do not agree, and your rewriting of the expression brings them into agreement. Your variation is a nice one too! (If you go to the Help menu in Kyma and select Update Sound library, it will automatically update the expressions library with the corrected version) [This message has been edited by SSC (edited 18 February 2012).] IP: Logged
trotz Member	posted 19 February 2012 12:50 Carla, could you please check this? In my controlfunctions.txt this reads as... Name: Time index triggered by !KeyDown Expression: Sinusoidal controller w/ random modulation instead of as .. Expression: (!KeyDown fullRamp: 'celthrpGliss s512' sampleFileDuration s) Thanks!

SSC Administrator	posted 19 February 2012 13:44 On our copy it reads: Expression: !KeyDown fullRamp: 'frase' sampleFileDuration s Please try the update Sound library from the Help menu and let us know if that puts us in sync. Thanks! IP: Logged
trotz Member	posted 19 February 2012 14:55 Thank you very much. I suspected this. I have been working with a text editor for the new mindmaps and maybe I did an unintentional copy/paste. I tried to sync but I guess that didn't work. Luckily, after your message I have used the "versions" feature in Lion and recovered the synced original one from this morning. Everything looks/works as expected now. I am learning a lot by studying the expressions library and it feels very good to know that Symbolic Sound has this great support when I hit my head with a wall ! Sorry for the trouble. Thanks again.

trotz Member	posted 23 February 2012 09:55 I double-checked this time Could there be a mistake here because of no !Skip HotVariable defined in the expression as stated in the Comment? Best Regards, Pere Type: Expression Name: Pattern generator Comment: Use in a Frequency field to create somewhat unpredictable patterns of pitches. !IMPORTANT: In the VCS, set !Length, !Offset, and !Skip to the range (0,12) and set the grid to 1. Expression: ((((((1 bpm: (!BPM * (1 - !Pause))) countTriggersMod: ((((1 bpm: (!BPM / !Length)) countTriggersMod: !Length reverse: !Sw01) + !Offset) of: #(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11)) reverse: !Sw01) + !Offset) * ((((1 bpm: (!BPM / !Length)) countTriggersMod: !Length reverse: !Sw01) + !Offset) of: #(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11))) mod: !Length) of: #(60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71)) nn IP: Logged
