Re: [sc-users] Event Timing Offset

[tom tlalim <ttlalim@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi esben,

i'd recommend reading "Streams-Patterns-Events" (you can find  
reference in Streams help)
it would also be nice if someone could shed some more light here  
about how to set the arguments to a playing routine/task.

i would either use the currentEnvironment to store values and call  
them from within the Task:

~timeisme = 100;
(
t = Task({
	loop{
		~timeisme.value.postln;
		0.2.wait;
	}
})
)

t.play
~timeisme = {10.rand};


or define an Event for my Tasks

e = Event.new
e.timeisme = 100;
(
e.task = Task({
	loop{
		e.timeisme.value.postln;
		0.2.wait
	}
})
)

e.task.play
e.timeisme = { 120.0.rand }
e.task.stop

in both cases you can set those values from your MIDI routine or  
responders

cheerz,
tom
