Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to setup an array of the same SndBuf playing at different rates.

I'm using a Gong sample.  Playing that back at different rates to make basic melodic patterns.

I can make a random function but I don't know who I can set an array of rates which I can then randomise.

Any ideas?

Here is my existing code with random function. (I tried writing an array at the start but not sure how to call that?)

Sorry for such an easy question...

//Sndbuf


//4 => int gongs;

//[.25, 0.5, 1.0, .25] @=> float rates[];//array of possible rates (changing will change harmony)


//program

SndBuf mySound => Delay d => JCRev rev => Gain g => dac;


0.8 => rev.mix;


//delay and rev setup


d => Gain feedback => d;




while (true)

{

    .02 => g.gain;

    me.dir()+"Samples/MotherGong.wav" =>mySound.read;

    

    

    

    0 =>mySound.pos;

    Math.random2f ( 20.1, 22.01 ) => mySound.rate;  

    Math.random2f( 0.3, 0.5) ::second => d.max;

    Math.random2( 30, 70) ::ms =>d.delay;

    

    Math.random2f( 0.3, .8) => feedback.gain;

    

    0.50 ::second => now;

    

    

    

}
