4 categories:: UGens>Random
6 Description::
8 Generates a single random float value in uniform distribution from
9 code::lo::  to  code::hi:: . It generates
10 this when the SynthDef first starts playing, and remains fixed for
11 the duration of the synth's existence.
14 classmethods::
16 method::new
18 argument::lo
19 Lower limit of the output range.
21 argument::hi
22 Upper limit of the output range.

26 code::
29 SynthDef("help-Rand", { arg out=0;
30         Out.ar(out,
31                 FSinOsc.ar(
32                         Rand(200.0, 400.0),
33                         0, Line.kr(0.2, 0, 1, doneAction:2))
