|
Similar to link::Classes/Pfindur::, but works with the value directly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
note::
|
||
|
|
Be careful if this is used, directly or indirectly, for a note-length parameter! The difference may be very small and this could result in zombie nodes, due to a bug in link::Classes/EnvGen:: for very short sustain times.

method::new
|
||
|
|
Embeds elements of the strong::pattern:: into the stream until the sum comes close enough to strong::sum::. At that point, the difference between the specified sum and the actual running sum is embedded.
