Just an idea, but if the hardware random number generators use a jittery oscillator etc. Why not use [noise~] and [snapshot~] followed by some arithmetic and [int] you could build what I assume would be more random than the [random] box.
weird idea. especially, since [noise~] uses exactly the same pseudo-random algorithm as [snapshot~].
Snapshot~ outputs random numbers? That would explain a lot of oddities in my patches ;)
What does make sense is to use noise *from the adc* with snapshot~ to get seeds for your random objects, I think that was what Frank meant with the "Can of Beats" patch.
