can somebody give me a quick hint on how to generate a sequence of bangs with a exponential timing? meaning: after each bang there's a bigger pause until the next one than with the previous two?

in the end it should be possible to make such "ramped" bang-sequences with each time different amounts of bangs, with different timings.

i think i can construct it with a complex network of delays, bangs, and uzis, but maybe somebody did it smarter before?

exponentially-timed-sequence-of-bangs

I don't know if it is a smarter one, but the first thing I thought about is that :

Here is my solution, using a 'phasor bang' and curve~

Essl's RTC Lib has a number of abstractions that may be useful for you.

an easy approach is to do it recursively:

thanks for your answer. I didn't have time to address the problem for a while, now i came back to it.

At the moment, Volkers approach is the one that I will work with I think. I hope it will work also ok until down to more or less 100 bangs per second... let's see.

To work at such rate (100 bang per seconds), better use audio rate and a phasor~ driven engine...

exponentially timed sequence of bangs.
