best way to quantize a sweeping signal into specified pitch values?
Jul 21 2012 | 4:52 am
If I have some signal values sweeping all around and i want it to step to specific values instead of sweeping, what's the best way to go about it? I could use a bunch of >~ objects banging message boxes that are all connected to a sig~, with a onepole~ following to create some portamento and eliminate clicks... but is that really the best way to go about it? That idea seems not super elegant.
