howdy, noise~ has an inlet which I'm sure I asked about once... maybe others as well. It's a useless inlet, but here's what I found...
I had a sig~ connected to an osc~ and then I changed the osc~ for noise~
well, it is not a signal inlet and you can not connect a signal to it, but if you do this, the connection will remain, even though it complains.
funny enough, it'll set the gain of you noise~ object and scare the hell out of you ;)
cheers
