[chuck-users] two similar shreds with different results

[Casper Schipper]

Hi Charlie,

I think I found it: .1::ms is not the same as 1::samp
You do in both scripts .1 ::ms => now, but in the second variant, this means now will have increased by 4.1 samples, instead of 1 unit (depending on your samplerate).
I could get the same sound from both scripts by changing .1::ms => now to samp => now;

Best,
Casper

I created a simple bit crusher using an integer as an index and then using time as an index; I thought these were equivalent but they aren't. I wonder if this is because the integer increments at a  different rate than the sampling rate? Any guidance on this gratefully received! Thanks,
