Hallo, Andrew Faraday hat gesagt: // Andrew Faraday wrote:
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.
That's what is used for example in the "Can of Beats" scene for RjDj that still is a huge success with the listeners: http://rjdj.me/music/Chris%20McCormick/CanOfBeats/
Getting repeatable random numbers also has its use, though. For example in the EA/Maxis game "Spore" random numbers with repeated seeds are the base for a lot of the procedural music generated.
