MonoFlop missing bangs when banged too close too its period

[TremensS]

Heeeeey,

Just spotted this weird behaviour: I noticed my MonoFlops were properly flopping only one time out of two (almost in a toggle fashion) while I was randomly banging them at close-to-their-period intervals.

Attached is a little patch to demonstrate.
Problem was tested and shows on both 2021.4.3 and 2021.4.6 that I’m currently using.

Hpoe this helps!

Suppose it has to do with the FrameDelay inside MonoFlop and the time difference between LFO and MonoFlop being approximately the length of one frame (@60 FPS).

Hey Bjoern,

(Sorry I had missed your reply!)

Indeed the Mainloop adjustement fixes the behaviour, but it’s not something I’d touch in my current patch (I’d rather have everything computed at the minimum fps I need).

Do you consider this a bug, or something we can’t do anything about?
(the goal being keeping MonoFlop working as expected even at periods close to the MainLoop framerate)

Otherwise it means I’d have to use a high MainLoop indeed, and then use LFO’s and Cache regions everywhere to save the computation :(

@TremensS

Do you consider this a bug

I’d say so. One of the devvvvs should have a look at it, @gregsn maybe?
