Question

I’m a student in a programming class and I just can’t get this fading in to work… Right now it’s just muting the first few samples of length fade_length… can anyone tell me why it does so so I can find out a way to fix it?

<code erased>

Help without direct answers would be great. Thank you

Answer 1

If you’re using Python 2.x, try

factor = 1.0 * index / fade_length

An int divided by a larger int is 0. You have to coerce the operation to floating point division.

Edit:

You can also use from __future__ import division to make the division operator use true division like Python 3. Use ‘//’ for floor division.
