I have a counter that runs in 1 sec intervals. 

(this should be changes dynamically because the numbers of sounds will be change from time to time) so it should be a drop folder to select the actual file quantities and names.

I would like that as long the counter is running a sound will be outputted every x intervals with some randomness for each time that is chose between two values.

the sound should be heard for 1 second or 2 at most (choose by user) 

for example system is set to output a sound every 5 seconds with a randomness between1 to 2.5 sec

so if counter is running and first sound was generate after 5 seconds, the next sound (as long counter is running) will be generate after time that can be either 4 sec to max of 7.5 sec.

the chosen sound to be generate should be either random (every time a different sound is chose) or in sequence.

how can I add the randomness of output interval?

I am having issues with choppiness with UI elements in Max. I have a couple of videos to demonstrate.

In the first video I have Max's default dial and the max4live dial, then in the middle I have Ableton Live native dials, then finally I have my own C++ plugin in JUCE.

In the second video I have a native Ableton Live device (Meld) and a max4live device (LFO) side by side.

As you can see, it's as if the Max versions always have a slower refresh rate. I found a refresh rate setting in Max preferences which was set to 30fps by default, but increasing it doesn't seem to help. I can verify the setting does something since it gets appropriate choppier at lower fps settings.

EDIT: It isn't the quantisation either, since the same happens for sliders, with float outputs, and when shift-dragging

All this isn't a huge deal or anything, but I'm just wondering if this is a known issue or if I'm missing a setting to improve it.

Im trying to build a 2-track looper using 2 Karma externals (latest version 1.6.1). See attached maxpat. 

Most of the times I end up with different loop length on each Karma external even using the same record/play commands to control both Karma externals. Any ideas?

After having defined the optimal value of notes, then there is a need to edit those hertz values into music notation system "bach.quantize" mode.

I share the notes and the time measures of a sample song, My request is how will I write it in music note? Here are the notes of the song and its relative time measure.

187 187 187 132 141 141 141 162 168 168 207 213 210 189 165 174 216 222 216 222 216 225 213 207 207

116 117 162 906 116 139 186 464 116 418 140 720 116 627 116 720 789 697 789 395 975 302 116 279 116

the actual tone or tonic of the above sample is 216 or 108. These last group of numbers (the  time measure) can be divided by any constant value.

I am trying to build a patch on which I can play back the input in different speeds. I really like the fact that the shorter window, the less delay and more artifacts,  and the other way around, and I'd like to use this creatively. However, I am encountering clicking problems everywhere, and I am not so sure where else to look.

If I play at regular rate (1.) grooveduck helps me to solve this problem, and effectively removes the clicks from what I am singing live. 

However, if I go to any other rate, new clicks appear. I tried to duck the input too, syncing with the record object sync outlet. It gets a bit better but it does not do the job well enough.
