[chuck-users] sndBuf.valueAt (Forrest Curo asks)

[Forrest Curo]

I've achieved  dreadfulness with this. Okay, will vary the rhythm etc and
reduce the range, get a more interesting scale, but... hmm!
SawOsc s => JCRev r => dac;
.1 => s.gain;
.1 => r.mix;
1 => int incsamp;
0 => int ps;
1 => float height;
0 => float maxsofar;
0 => float freq;
SndBuf buf;

"/home/forrest/chuck/examples/basic/om.wav" => buf.read;

buf.samples()  => int numSamples;
 Std.rand2(1, numSamples-1) => incsamp;
while(true){
(incsamp + ps) % numSamples => ps;
buf.valueAt(ps) + 0.125 => height;
Std.mtof(Math.ceil(Std.fabs(500.0 * height)) ) => freq => s.freq;

if(freq > maxsofar) {
freq => maxsofar;
<<< maxsofar >>>;
}
0.75::second => now;
}
