Randomize Button and Big "Macro" Knob Conflicting

Gravez · July 2022

Hi,

I appreciate any help on this !

So I've been trying to figure out an issue i've run into recently with trying to get my big macro knob that controls multiple parameters to play nice with my random button which randomizes the same parameters in a given value range.

I have both the big macro knob and the randomize button working properly in the script however whenever I press the randomize button, the big macro knob latches onto the new values of the randomize parameters successfully but once I press the randomize button again and then try to move the big macro knob once more, it ends up resetting all of the parameters back to the first time the parameters were randomized and were latched upon the first click of the random button.

I have attached a stripped version of my script below if any one once to take a look or replicate the issue and again I appreciate any help as this as been quite a headache to find the best way to approach solving this issue.

I have already tried placing the big macro knob "morph" callback function within the random button callback code which sort of works but whenever I press the randomize button after the parameters are latched it doesn't randomize properly anymore. It sort of randomizes all parameters at an even range instead of them having unique parameters.

UPDATE : This issue has been resolved !! Ended up having to place all the flags within the "randomize" function to have the same difference when using the marco knob.

Thanks for anyone that was working on helping.
