rand~ bug/issue

Maurizio Giri's icon

Hi,
there seems to be a problem with the rand~ object: if you give it a very low frequency (so small that a message box can't display it), the object turns into a white noise generator and it is not possible to change its frequency unless you stop-restart the dsp engine (see the patch below).

Further tests: signals also can cause the bug (see patch).
Maybe would it be possible to add an update of the object in the incremental page?

The mac version is now on the incremental page. The windows version will follow in a couple of hours.
