Re: [sc-users] conditional statement in SynthDef

[Joshua Parmenter <joshpar@xxxxxxx>]

Look at the end of the 'if' helpfile.  if inside a synthdef works a  
little differently, and won't really give you what you want (at least  
according to this example):

SynthDef("ifTest", {arg outBus = 0, high = 1;
      var freq;

      freq = if(high, 440, 220);

      Out.ar(outBus, SinOsc.ar(freq, 0, 0.5));
      }).send(s);

i = Synth.new("ifTest", [\high, 1]); //->440


i = Synth.new("ifTest", [\high, 0]); //->220

i = Synth.new("ifTest", [\high, 0.5]); //->330

Hope that helps,

Josh
