Blue stream blues

Can truncate be moved to Blue?

Yes...

x = rndint(x) - 0.49999 ;

I think this is right but I can't tested it now -- I' m sure someone can post the correction if that's not quite it.

But this won't fix timing issues as its sampling the stream into the green realm that leads to the timing problem.

Opps

I meant to say:

x = rndint(x - 0.49999) ;

That's a bummer. It was worth a shot though.

Can't believe how much stuff I'm learning by hitting my head against the "Timing " brick wall. Thanks

I've been a big proponent of SynthMaker for some time now but the timing issue comes up over and over.

Sample-level accuracy was more-or-less promised at one point (SynthMaker x?) but it never came to pass.

Even if they could make a primitive that would fire a trigger within a few milliseconds of a stream event that would allow midi sequencing and other musical events to occur and a level of accuracy that humans couldn't distinguish form simultaneous.

Thanks Oddson. That link is a killer. Don't know how I missed that post. Wish I'd seen it a month ago. No regrets about all the time I spent on timing though. Did get a improved timer out of it and learn't a truckload while doing it. Yeh, that link is great. I'm gonna put it in my "rock solid timing post" in examples. It would really clarify things for the next guy who gets a timing issue.
