thanks miller and school shoes, my problem was grasping the „initial delay“ concept: its not adding one after the other but always refering to timepoint 0. (my long years of working with max/msp hit me once again. in max/msp´s line~ times are cumulatively added, one after another.)
the flossmanual page set me straight on this, but may i suggest a slight change in the vline~-helpfile: changing the complex messagebox to: 1 1000, 0 0 2000, 1 1000 3000 (instead of 1 1000, 0 0 1000, 1 1000 1000) would -imho- make the concept of initial delay more easy to grasp. now finally off to ramping to my hearts content... hans > Am 24.07.2016 um 02:58 schrieb school shoes <[email protected]>: > > Hi > I have also been a little confused by this in the past but found the > explanation on the floss page helpful : > > http://en.flossmanuals.net/pure-data/audio-tutorials/envelope-generator/ > > I also only seem to get one ramp if I click the [1 1000 0, 0 0 1000, 1 1000 > 1000( message in the help file > > but works if I add “ 0 0 , “ to the start of the message > > s s > > From: Pd-list <[email protected]> on behalf of hans w. koch > <[email protected]> > Sent: Sunday, 24 July 2016 9:53:19 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [PD] vline~ helpfile > > hello, > > maybe i am doing something stupid, but i don´t get the vline~ synthax: > the helpfile states: "Any number of future ramps may be scheduled and vline~ > will remember them and execute them in order. > They must be specified in increasing order of initial delay however, since a > segment cancels all planned segments at any future time.“ > > then there is an example with a message box containing: 1 1000, 0 0 1000, 1 > 1000 1000 > but it doesn´t do more than ramp from 0-1 in a little more than a second. > isn´t it supposed to ramp up then down to 0 in another second and then up > again? > > (using pd47-1-64 bits on osx 11.6. btw) > > thanks for any pointers > > hans > _______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> > https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
