@section{description}
Break a continuous signal into linearly interpolated segments with specific durations.
Feeding Ramp with noise is similar to link::Classes/LFNoise1::
@racketblock[
Ramp.kr(WhiteNoise.kr(1),0.5)
::
is equal to:
]
@racketblock[
LFNoise1.kr(1 / 0.5)
::
For smoothing out control signals, take a look at link::Classes/Lag:: and link::Classes/VarLag::

@section{argument}
