smpl logic

[startz]

In the commands

sample s1 if x>1
sample s2 if x>4
smpl s1 and s2

s2 has no effect. Is that right?

Correct. You can not use two sample objects at the same time.

Actually I take that back, you can do this:

Code: Select all

sample s1 if x>1 sample s2 if x2>4 smpl if s1 and s2

sample s1 if x>1 sample s2 if x2>4 smpl if s1 and s2

Okay, that's consistent with how smpls operate, although in the example omitting the if there should be an error message or something.
