Hey, I'm looking for an object or a simple combination that acts like the decide object and outputs 1 or 0 randomly at a bang input. What I want to achieve is for example to say that the chance is 80% that a 1 is the output.

I'm sure there's a simple solution but currently I'm stuck.

decide-object-with-adjustable-probability

start with random or expr ... plus if or gate ...

Also, here's a "gamble" abstraction, to "play the odds" (from the Max 2.0 tutorials). 

Maybe TMI, but here ya go: A simple probabilistic decision

Pretty much the same as Andrew's with less resolution.

sorry i did not look at it in the hurry of waking up, but you're right. though this cropped resolution thing seems nonsense to me.

Finally Andrews answer worked perfect for me.

Thanks you very much for your help guys!

Hello, I am attempting to recreate Christopher Dobrian's "Thelonius Monk effect” in Max for Live to play grace notes in Ableton as a Max Midi Effect. I am very new here and I apologize if I am missing something obvious. Could someone please point me in the right direction to achieve this effect in Ableton? I’ve tried creating an abstraction from the patches that Christopher shared in this thread but I really don’t know what I’m doing. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've been searching the internet and I can't find any other way to attain this effect.
