Drunken repeats
Hi guys,
im trying to create a drunken walk through, however i don't want the same
number outputted to repeat twice after itself...anyone know how to do this?
cheers,
dave
just put a change object after drunk...
if I remember well, negative steps size remove step size of 0. Is it
what you want ?
hth
Julien.
nice one,
-2 seems to do the trick.
cheers buddy.
A caveat...
Although I intended to make my Dronk object behave exactly like drunk, it
does not respond correctly to negative steps. I'll try to fix this ASAP but
I can't guarantee when I can get to it. I have a couple of ideas for a work
around that I'll post in a sample patch soon.

Dronk workaround to avoid immediate repetitions. The del 1 following an
interval of 0 is a "try again" kludge without producing an infinite loop.
BTW, I recommend a close look at del. It is an innocent-looking but powerful
little object. I use it a lot to tell me that nothing has happened - for
example when a markov chain has found a deadend and failed to produce an
output.

See my post on this. The issue is (or may be) that we may always want and
output. If drunk (or Dronk) is being used to generate notes and trigger
rhythms, change will introduce a gap in time. In my workaround, I
illustrated a "try again" method.
