I'm building a program that will algorithmically (and randomly) generate melodic sequences from a given pitch set (or scale). However, I would like to manually set the pitch set via the kslider object (or perhaps staff notation). Perhaps most importantly, this would be 

, i.e., a set might include only one pitch, e.g., C4, or (many) more, and I would like to update this in real-time by adding or removing available pitches from the set.

I understand that if the pitch set is of variable length (1 or more), it will impact the random generation, e.g., a set including one pitch (C4) vs. four (C4, C#4, F4, B4).

How might I accommodate this kind of variability? I know that the random object has an inlet to set its range, but might this interact with the number of keys engaged with the kslider object?

Hi all—this is my first post!

+ (random sequence)


A-ha! The table object is what I'd missed! Thanks!

@MZED, do you know why there is a very low sound being played when metro is toggled on, but no keys are selected with kslider?

Sorry, fast proof of concept. Splitting or selecting out 0 should fix it.
