summary:: timed embedding of values
related:: Classes/Ptime, Classes/Pstep, Classes/Env
categories:: Streams-Patterns-Events>Patterns>Time
description::
Pseg defines a function of time as a breakpoint envelope using the same parameters as link::Classes/Env::. These patterns can be used to describe tempo or dynamic variations independent of the rhythmic patterns that express them.
ClassMethods::
method::new
argument::levels
A link::Classes/Pattern:: that returns the levels. The first level is the initial value of the envelope, all subsequent values are interpolated.
argument::durs
A link::Classes/Pattern:: that returns segments durations in beats.
argument::curves
a link::Classes/Symbol::, link::Classes/Float::, or an link::Classes/Array:: of those. Determines the shape of the segments.
argument::repeats
a number.
The possible values are:
table::
## code::\step:: || || flat segments.
## code::\linear:: || code::\lin:: || linear segments, the default.
## code::\exponential:: || code::\exp:: || natural exponential growth and decay. In this case, the levels must all be nonzero and the have the same sign.
## code::\sine:: || code::\sin:: || sinusoidal S shaped segments.
## code::\welch:: || code::\wel:: || sinusoidal segments shaped like the sides of a Welch window.
## code::\squared:: || code::\sqr:: || squared segment.
## code::\cubed:: || code::\cub:: || cubed segment.
## a link::Classes/Float:: || || a curvature value for all segments. 0 means linear, positive and negative numbers curve the segment up and down.
## an link::Classes/Array:: of symbols or floats || || curvature values for each segment.
