Re: [sc-users] driving parameters with enveloppes in patterns

and i'd like to add 2 other options to consider...
1. code the 'oscillators' or envelopes yourself in sclang. a good exercise. 

(
a= 2;	//freq
p= Pbind(
	\dur, 0.125,
	\freq, Proutine({
		var amp= 1;
		360.do{|x|
			var y= sin(x/360*a*2pi)*amp;
			y.linexp(-1, 1, 400, 800, nil).yield;
		};
	})
).play;
)
a= 5
a= 10
a= 90
a= 91
2. look into SharedOut. there's also SharedIn if you ever need to control some synth parameter from a pbind. 

s= Server.internal;	//sharedout only works with internal server
s.boot
(
a= SynthDef(\shared, {|freq= 0.5|
	SharedOut.kr(0, SinOsc.kr(freq));
}).play(s);
p= Pbind(
	\dur, 0.125,
	\freq, Pfunc({s.getSharedControl(0).linexp(-1, 1, 400, 800, nil)})
).play;
)
a.set(\freq, 0.1)
a.set(\freq, 10)
a.set(\freq, 5)
a.set(\freq, 6)
a.set(\freq, 4)

The trick is, getting a value from a control bus is asynchronous but
the Pfunc's function has to return its value synchronously.

kr bus <===> Pfunc won't work, but...

kr bus ===> (storage in client) <=== Pfunc will work beautifully.

The storage could be a declared variable, environment variable or
maybe another structure to handle multiple values.

I often use my GenericGlobalControl for this - it's a client-side
wrapper of a kr bus on the server, with "watch" capability to update
the client-side value automatically.

g = GenericGlobalControl(\myThing, nil, 0, controlSpec);
g.watch;

// Change update frequency with:
KrBusWatcher.newFrom(s).updateFreq = timesPerSecondToUpdate;

It's in the ddwCommon quark.

Oh, GenericGlobalControls respond to asStream so you can use them
transparently in patterns.

Pbind(\g, g)

When in doubt, PFunc is always the answer (though I still think it should be

I recall felix saying once "that's why I make my func the P-func"
