Re: [sc-users] sending synth parameters with patterns

I don't see the reason why not:

(

Pdef(\test, {|n=0.5|

var a = (1..10);

var b = (10..20);

var c = (20..40);

    Pbind(

        \instrument, \default,

        \dur, 0.25,

       \degree, Prand([a, b, c], inf)*n

    )

}).play;

)

Unless you mean something else.

Hi all,

Say I have an collection of parameters to send to a synth...

a = [\cutoff, 440, \modulation, 0.3];

This works nicely when dealing with Synth...

x = Synth(\mySynthDef, a);

But my question is whether there's any way to use an array like this when working with patterns. I can't see any way to send such an array as part of a Pbind, for example.

An obvious solution might seem to be to add entries to the Pbind for the contents of the array -- \cutoff, \modulation and so forth -- but I have a use case in mind where it won't be known in advance what those entries will be, hence wondering if I can get anywhere with the collection.

Any thoughts? Thanks a lot.
