Hai.

Ive been trying to figure out SynthMaker for a short while now. I was reading through the userguide when i came upon this next sentence;

The Poly Int data type is the integer equivalent of the Poly type. It is used only in the Graph to Poly to allow sample rate indexing of Float Arrays. PolyInt – multi channel integer, one channel for each note playing

Can someone explain me what is meant and overall explain to me what Int is. Not just PolyInt. But that too. Is thersomewhere where I can find this other the the forum? Thankyou very much.

Not sure if I understood you correctly.. are you asking what "integer" is?

Titus ·

Uhmm.. Maybe.

Im asking what the connectors with an I do, which I think are called Int. Also what PolyInt does. thats a connector aswell. the white one with an I.

i hope you weren't meaning to be rude to Titus there - you weren't born knowing what an integer is either. 😉 😇

Hi Titus, welcome to the forum. As you might have guessed if you looked at some of today's other posts, things aren't quite normal around here just at the moment. Rest assured, it is usually a very friendly, happy and helpful place.

An Integer is just a 'round' number.: most numbers in SM are 'floats', which can be any number. e.g. 1.234, 0.004 etc., but sometimes you just need a whole number with no decimal places - for example to choose which cell of an array to get a value from. If you connect a 'green' float box into an integer one and type in some random numbers, you'll see what I mean - everything after the decimal point disappears.

Still think it means you getting off ofloading a lot of what we did right way before, scuse me. And this could have been googled way too easily.
