No way would I want to ask this forum another question like this if I hadn't tried to fix this problem for almost an hour+ now. :D It could be that I don't understand partial~ as that's a totally new object for me. But I'm less than 3 weeks on *all* objects so who knows. :p

My issue is, when I press the ezdac~ I am getting a sinewave tone before I press the the button to make the 2 operator synth sound. This synth if from the tutorials, I didn't want to just copy and paste it, so I took a screenshot and added the objects myself, in order to get a better understanding. But maybe there is some code that I'm missing or god forbid a patch cord missing or in the wrong place that's doing this.

Here's a small screen video that explains it much better.

The 'function' object on the left is not setup so that its last end-point goes all the way to 0. Notice the one on the right ends with an empty circle instead of a filled-in dot(this means that particular point is at 0.; not to be confused with a point that is slightly shaded but also has a circle around it which means it's a sustain point.... helpfile for 'function' can tell you more about this...), pull the last point within the 'function' graph object on the 

 all the way down to 0.(you probably triggered it before, then it gets left at that low level of volume even when you turn ezdac~ off and back on again).

Yes!!! :) Thank you lots...and also, thanks for your patience as I know this is really simple stuff. I really do try everything before I have to ask. :p I'm happy now, I'm going to spend a lot of time on creating fm sounds in max, it's very interesting and fun.

I'm hearing a tone before pressing button object, why?
