Dconst : DUGen : UGen : AbstractFunction : Object

Constrain a demand-rate stream to a given sum
Source: Demand.sc

Description

A demand-rate analog to Pconst. It outputs values from the child demand stream until the sum of those values reaches or exceeds a given total. The last value will be truncated so that the sum of Dconst's output values will match the total exactly.

Class Methods

Dconst.new(sum, in, tolerance: 0.001)

Arguments:

sum

The sum to reach. This may be a number, demand UGen or any other UGen. When a Dconst instance resets, one value will be taken for the sum, and it can't be modulated until the next reset.

in

A demand-rate stream, providing the output values.

tolerance

Because of floating point rounding error, it isn't safe to stop only when the output's running sum is equal to the desired total. tolerance is how close the running sum can get to stop the output: abs(runningsum - sum) <= tolerance.

Returns:

A demand-rate stream.
