!SnareReset alignWith: (1 bpm: (!BPM / 2))


why does this expression align the !SnareReset button when I press it , but then the expression evaluates to 0 once it has aligned - surely it should delay the On and hold it?

I'm just trying to make a really simple re-trigger for the sequencer gate field.

well, hacking away at it , and checking out Carla's excellent LiveLooper programs , I have made it work like this

(!SnareReset alignWith: (1 bpm: (!BPM / 4))) setReset: !SnareReset


its a set reset - but my initial query stands - surely the alignWith: should just delay the start?

Hi Cristian,

The alignWith produces a gate whose on duration the time interval between triggers in its argument. For example:

(1 bpm: 20) alignWith: (1 bpm: 60)

generates 1 gate every three seconds (20/60), and each gate stays on for one second (the duration of one beat at bpm = 60).

If you generate a gate and align it with a BPM, for example:

!Gate alignWith: (1 bpm: 60)

You cannot send the *next* !Gate until the last one you sent has turned on and turned off (in this case, the generated gates will all be 1 second long).
