Yes, you can do that too. I thought you wanted to use the MIDI command as a trigger to go to the next random value.

Ok. That makes sense. :)

The app keeps freezing when trying to assign MIDI with the global variables that I've setup. Trying to isolate exactly what's happening and come up with something duplicatable to post on the bug forum.

I found out that if I enter "0" in the TimerDuration Global, it freezes the application. This is what was happening with MIDI as well as it was producing a "0" value. I've duplicated this on two separate computers. When I delete / bypass the 1/x Expression in the Timer Global, it does not freeze.


Should I report this as a bug in some particular place or is this post adequate?

Yes, it’s a bug I suppose, but the problem is that you’re dividing by 0 (= infinity).

An easy solution is to enforce a minimum duration, let’s say 1 second, which you can achieve using Offset 1 before the Expression, or a Threshold, or other methods.
