summary:: Sum of uniform distributions.
related:: Classes/ExpRand, Classes/IRand, Classes/LinRand, Classes/Rand, Classes/TExpRand, Classes/TIRand, Classes/TRand
categories:: UGens>Random
Description::
Generates a single random float value in a sum of
code::n:: uniform distributions from
code::lo:: to code::hi:: .
classmethods::
method::new
argument::lo
Lower limit of the output range.
argument::hi
Upper limit of the output range.
argument::n
table::
## n = 1: || Uniform distribution - same as link::Classes/Rand::.
## n = 2: || Triangular distribution.
## n = 3: || Smooth hump.
::
As
code::n:: increases, distribution converges
towards gaussian.
Examples::
code::
(
SynthDef("help-NRand", { arg out=0, n=0;
Out.ar(out,
FSinOsc.ar(
NRand(1200.0, 4000.0, n),
0, Line.kr(0.2, 0, 0.01, doneAction:2))
)
}).add;
)
(
n = 0;
Routine({
inf.do({ arg i;
Synth.new("help-NRand", [\n, n]); 0.05.wait;
})
}).play;
)
n = 1;
n = 2;
n = 4;
