I'm a relative beginner to Max in the grand scheme of things, but I was hoping I could get some wisdom on a puzzle I'm having trouble solving. I'd imagine it's something simple but maybe 'behind the scenes' that is outside of my more traditional non-programmery sensibility. Anyway, I'm trying to draw a simple envelope to shape a signal and what happens is that when I fiddle with the envelope in the function object sometimes it starts hanging like the offset of the output is increased. It almost looks like things somehow invert or something. I haven't exactly sorted out what is causing it, so that's made it a bit confusing to try to unravel the puzzle. Anyway, here's the patch. I'd certainly love if people can take a look and explain what might not be set up right.
