Hi Herman,

You can use Events/MIDI/HID to advance in time.

Have a look at this chapter if you want to know more about it https://en.flossmanuals.net/chuck/_full/#events

In a nutshell what happens is that a MIDI event is received and that turns into a trigger, so your program advances in time. Otherwise it stays there until a MIDI even happens.

See it more as a trigger than a time constant if that makes sense.

Cheers,

Mario

Hi,

I'm trying to understand what's really  happening in chuck. 

I thought i did untill i saw some exemples of midi.

Normaly you can only feed time or duration into now ( e.g. 10::ms => now)

But in case you are awaiting a midi-in message you write :

MidiIn min;

while (true)

{

min => now    

}

So in fact do you assign the message to time? Total confusion!

Thanks for your answer.

Herman
