The Kyma Language for Sound Design, Version 4.5

RandomSelection
Scripts Category
Chooses Sounds from the sample space of all Inputs and assigns them start times that are randomly
generated according to an exponential distribution of delay times having the specified averageDelay time.
The value in Iterations is the total number of Sounds. Seeds are supplied so that the results are
repeatable.
Inputs
This serves as the sample space. Sounds in the result are randomly chosen from among these Sounds.
Weights
Supply the relative likelihoods of each Input (where Inputs are ordered according to their positions in the
field from top to bottom and left to right). You must specify the same number of likelihoods as there are
Inputs. The likelihoods are normalized, so you can use numbers in any range.
AverageDelay
Supply an average delay time for the Input Sounds. (Durations should always be greater than 0.)
Iterations
This is the total number of randomly selected Sounds.
DelaySeed
This is a seed value for the exponential distribution of delay times. Type in an integer less than 65535,
for example, 35409.
SampleSeed
This is a seed value for the sample space of subSounds. Type in an integer less than 65535, for
example, 35425.
Left
This controls the level of the left input channel. The maximum value is 1 and the minimum is -1. The left
channel of the input is multiplied by the value of this parameter. Some example values for Left are:
1 (no attenuation)
0 (maximum attenuation)
!Fader1 (continuous controller sets level)
!KeyVelocity (MIDI key velocity controls the amplitude)
You can also paste another signal into this field, and the amplitude will vary with the output amplitude of
the pasted signal (something like an LFO controlling the attenuation). (See the manual for a complete
description of hot parameters, EventValues, EventSources, and Map files).
Right
This controls the level of the right input channel. The maximum value is 1 and the minimum is -1. The
right channel of the input is multiplied by the value of Right. Some example values for Right are:
1 (no attenuation)
