I have two metronomes running in synch, but one of them needs to be out of synch for one beat out of each 2 bar sequence , randomly at one of 4 specified offsets (i.e. 5ms, 10ms, 20ms, 25ms). So far so good - the tricky part is that each of the offsets needs to happen exactly ten times, until they have all been used up.

I have the random offsets working well with the following chain:

"random 4" -> "sel 0 1 2 3" -> *each of the 4 offset messages*

However, it just goes on forever and none of the values gets "used up" - I've looked in the documentation, but to no avail. Any solutions would be most appreciated!

It's a confusing thing you're trying to explain so it would be easier to see what you mean.

Can you post a patch?

Sure thing - my apologies, as I wasn't sure how to do this at first. The "offset" values are actually 5, 10, 15, 0 - which is a little different than what I put in my original post. Hope this helps to clarify.

Hmmm... not sure if I did that right. Here's a screenshot:

Have you tried something like [urn 40] into [% 4]?

I haven't thought it through too thoroughly, but is this what you need?

Rick, I believe your idea will do the trick - I'm pleasantly surprised at how simple it is.

Bill, I had a look at the patches you posted but didn't dig in as I think I'm good to go with what Rick posted.
