This might not be the smartest way to do it but it works. Added the trough and peak section just to check I reached the min and max values.

Another solution using [line~] instead.

Thanks, perfect!

yet another way (without msp):

nice too, thanks!

ok, now I made a little patcher which generates random movement. After a while it stops and I don't know why. It is may be something silly. Can someone please take a look (sometimes it takes a minute or two until it stops)?

thanks

you have just run out of unique random numbers... see help for 'urn' (esp. second outlet).

btw. what is ($1 $2) for? ^^

I knew it was something that stupid, thanks! And you are right- the $-signs are obsolete- relict from former attempts :-)

now I replaced urn with random but the stops are still there, see patch:

see line help "precise timing" tab. Maybe it's not directly related, but if you decrease grain time it won't stop. There is probably some quirk in how [line] decides if it finished. Maybe someone more knowledgeable can shed some light on this.

Minimal example:

ok, I set grain time to 5 and it works fine (now for several days), thanks for your help...
